250 Million Years of Convergent Evolution and Functional Divergence of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 28 Genes in Xylophagous Beetles (Cerambycidae and Buprestidae): Insights Into Horizontal Gene Transfer, Gene Dynamics, Synteny and Adaptive Divergence [0.03%]
白蚁寄生杆菌糖苷酶超家族第28大家族同源蛋白的趋同进化与功能分化:关于水平基因转移、基因动力学、同线性和适应性进化的洞察

Na Ra Shin et al.
Wood-feeding beetles harbour diverse gene families involved in plant cell wall degradation, including glycoside hydrolase family 28 (GH28) genes, which function as polygalacturonases. These genes are believed to have originated from microbi...
Host Transcriptomics Reveal Reduction in Defence-Reproduction Trade-Offs During Coinfection [0.03%]
宿主转录组揭示共感染期间防御-繁殖权衡的减少

Ian Will et al.
During infection, hosts may shift resources away from reproduction towards immune defence. It is unclear to what degree these costly trade-offs can be alleviated during protective coinfections, whereby antagonism between parasites reduces d...

Hybridization is a widespread evolutionary process and a key source of evolutionary novelty. Despite intensive study, the extent to which hybridization is deterministic and repeatable, particularly in recurrent contact events involving the ...
Habitat Specialisation Impacts Clownfish Demographic Resilience to Pleistocene Sea-Level Fluctuations [0.03%]
栖息地专业化影响丑鱼 demographic 对海平面波动的适应能力

Alberto García-Jiménez et al.
Habitat fragmentation and loss are key threats to biodiversity, yet their impacts on marine species remain poorly understood. Clownfishes, which rely on sea anemones for shelter and reproduction, provide an interesting model to explore how ...
Habitat Differences in Resource Density and Distribution Affect Ecology and Life History of a Landscape-Modifying Fish [0.03%]
生境中资源密度和分布的差异影响景观改造鱼类的生态与生活史属性

Aneesh P H Bose et al.
Resource heterogeneity is a widespread phenomenon, as resources are rarely spaced evenly across a landscape. Variation in resource density and distribution can have a myriad of behavioural, ecological, and evolutionary consequences for popu...

Marianthi Tangili et al.
Recent research in humans and both model and non-model animals has shown that DNA methylation (DNAm), an epigenetic modification, is one of the mechanisms underlying the ageing process. DNAm-based indices predict mortality and provide valua...
Inter-Caste Comparison Reveals a Unique Bioenergetic Signature in Long-Lived Ant Queens [0.03%]
种间比较揭示了长寿蚂蚁雌性的独特生物能量特征

Maïly Kervella et al.
Within the same species of eusocial insects, individuals of different castes typically display widely different life-history traits: sterile workers live for a few months, while queens can live for decades. Ageing theories emphasise the imp...
Landscape and Climate-Associated Selection in the Native and Widespread Bumblebee, Bombus terrestris [0.03%]
广泛分布的地蜂系谱的适应性演化分析:来自景观和气候的选择压力
Cecilia Kardum Hjort,Rachael Y Dudaniec,Peter Olsson et al.
Cecilia Kardum Hjort et al.
Anthropogenic land-use and climate change pose novel selection pressures on bees, yet their evolutionary responses in terms of morphological or physiological adaptations remain unclear. While adaptive responses are expected, these may be co...
Ancient Introgression Explains Mitochondrial Genome Capture and Mitonuclear Discordance Among South American Collared Tropidurus Lizards [0.03%]
古老基因渗入解释了南美某种蜥蜴的线粒体基因组捕获和线粒体-细胞核分歧现象
Matheus M A Salles,André L G Carvalho,Adam D Leaché et al.
Matheus M A Salles et al.
Mitonuclear discordance-evolutionary discrepancies between mitochondrial and nuclear DNA phylogenies-can arise from various factors, including introgression, incomplete lineage sorting, recent or ancient demographic fluctuations, sex-biased...
Wolbachia Host Shifts and Widespread Occurrence of Reproductive Manipulation Loci in European Butterflies [0.03%]
