Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of chronic neurological impairment worldwide, and there is evidence that both genetic and environmental variation contribute to the likelihood of recovery. Using an insect model of traumatic brain inj...
Seizure samples reveal complex evolutionary dynamics among Southeast Asian pangolins [0.03%]
seizure样本揭示东南亚穿山甲间的复杂进化动态

Portia Y-H Wong et al.
It is important to have clearly delineated taxonomic units informed by eco-evolutionary processes to ensure effective implementation of conservation efforts. For a group as threatened as Asian pangolins, a timely understanding and recogniti...
Complex range expansion and selective regime in the introduced Florida cane toad [0.03%]

Introduced species that successfully establish in new areas are a powerful system for investigating the genetic, ecological, and adaptive processes underlying range expansion. Rhinella marina is the focus of many studies of invasion dynamic...
Mitochondrial structure despite nuclear panmixia: sex-specific dispersal dictates population structure in sperm whales [0.03%]
线粒体谱系结构:精子鲸种群核基因呈现随机杂交而线粒体却表现出明显的遗传结构分区现象
Reid S Brennan,Lynsey A Wilcox Talbot,Anthony Martinez et al.
Reid S Brennan et al.
Marine mammals have high potential for dispersal, yet behavioral or environmental constraints can limit gene flow. This is true for the endangered sperm whale, Physeter macrocephalus, which has a global distribution and long-distance migrat...
The evolution of tandem repeat sequences under partial selfing and different modes of selection [0.03%]
分株自交及不同选择模式下串联重复序列的进化动力学研究
Vitor Sudbrack,Charles Mullon
Vitor Sudbrack
Tandem repeat (TR) sequences occur when short DNA motifs are repeated head-to-tail along chromosomes and are a major source of genetic variation. Population genetic models of TR evolution have focused on large, randomly mating, haploid popu...
Maternal inheritance of primary sex ratios in the dark-winged fungus gnat Lycoriella ingenua [0.03%]
暗翼真菌蝇(Lycoriella ingenua)中母系遗传的原初性别比
Maria Shlyakonova,Katy M Monteith,Laura Ross et al.
Maria Shlyakonova et al.
Sex determination mechanisms in insects are extraordinarily diverse, although most species have zygotic genotypic sex determination where sex is established by sex chromosomes upon fertilisation. Dark-winged fungus gnats (Diptera: Sciaridae...
Genomic divergence of leopards in the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa: potential drivers for local adaptation [0.03%]
南非开普植物区的豹基因组分歧:地方适应的潜在驱动因素
Laura Tensen,Anubhab Khan,Carlos Sarabia et al.
Laura Tensen et al.
The adaptive value of intraspecific phenotypic variability, as well as the extent to which this is balanced by selection and genetic drift, is still relatively poorly explored. An intriguing population of leopard (Panthera pardus) occurs in...
How environment and genetic architecture of unreduced gametes shape the establishment of autopolyploids [0.03%]
环境与非分离生殖细胞遗传结构塑造同源多倍体建立的方式
Yu Cheng,Filip Kolář,Roswitha Schmickl et al.
Yu Cheng et al.
It is broadly assumed that polyploidy success results from increased fitness associated with whole genome duplication due to higher tolerance to stressful conditions. In agreement, several theoretical models found that, among other factors,...
Genetic structure and conservation relevance in the narrowly distributed tree Catalpa huangxin revealed by RAD-Seq [0.03%]
基于RAD测序的狭域分布树种白花泡桐的遗传结构和保护意义分析
Wanting Ge,Ying Liu,Junhui Wang et al.
Wanting Ge et al.
Catalpa huangxin, a distinctive taxon within the genus Catalpa in China, is valued for its ornamental beauty and durable yellow heartwood. However, its wild populations are declining due to climate change and human activities, posing urgent...
Tissue-specific differences of gene expression variance in mutation accumulation lines of mice [0.03%]
小鼠突变积累系的组织特异性基因表达变异度差异分析
Eugenio López-Cortegano,Jobran Chebib,Anika Jonas et al.
Eugenio López-Cortegano et al.
New mutations are the source of all genetic variation, including variation affecting quantitative phenotypes. Here, in order to evaluate the impact of mutations on the integrated function of entire tissues, we estimated the mutational varia...
