Early characterization of excitation–contraction coupling and SLO-2 channel properties in Caenorhabditis elegans muscle cells

Cover image: Pictured are rescue tigers (Panthera tigris) at In-Sync Exotics Wildlife Rescue and Educational Center in Wylie, Texas. Ellie Armstrong, Jazlyn Mooney et al. explored the genomic diversity of the privately owned captive tiger population in the United States based on genomic sequencing of 138 individuals. The study population had ancestry from all six extant wild tiger subspecies and measures of genetic diversity and inbreeding that were comparable to wild tiger populations. The results could help inform tiger conservation efforts and illegal trafficking investigations. See the article by Armstrong, Mooney et al. e2402924121.
