Genital morphology and allometry differ by species and sex in Malawi cichlid fishes
HYDROBIOLOGIA, 791(1), 127–143.
author keywords: Genital morphology; Cichlid fishes; Sexual dimorphism; Anogenital distance; Genital papilla
TL;DR:
It is found that the most sexually distinct morphology is in the Lake Malawi rock cichlids and the least sexual dimorphism in the riverine outgroup; additionally, diversity in metrics within genus indicates that these traits are recently evolving.

Noncanocial cell death program independent of caspase activation cascade and necroptotic modules is elicited by loss of TGF beta-activated kinase 1
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 7.
TL;DR:
This work identified a previously uncharacterized cell death pathway regulated by TAK1, which is unexpectedly provoked by inhibition of caspase activity and necroptosis cascades and surprisingly found that caspases and RIPK3 inhibitions do not completely suppress cell death in Tak1-deficient cells.
