Biological individuality exists in different forms-unicellular, multicellular, colonial, etc.-which have arisen through evolutionary transitions in individuality. These involve bundling separate, lower-level individuals (particles) into hig...
Associations of dispersal traits with fecundity and clonal expansion among Japanese ant-dispersed sedges [0.03%]

Dispersal syndrome, which describe covariation of dispersal traits with other traits, provide clues for potential selection pressures or evolutionary constraints imposed on dispersal. In plants, theory predicts various associations of dispe...
Genome size and phenotypic change: insights on contemporary evolution across biological groups [0.03%]
基因组大小和表型变化:关于不同生物类群中当代进化的启示

Lucas D Gorné et al.
Environmental changes threaten the persistence of wild populations and can drive adaptive phenotypic changes. However, predicting the phenotypic outcome of an environmental change based on features of the species remains challenging. Genome...
Differential investment in growth and reproduction optimizes a life-history trade-off in a species characterized by alternative reproductive tactics [0.03%]
生长和繁殖的差异化投资优化了一种以替代生殖战术为特征的生命史权衡点

Tomas O Cornwell
Alternative reproductive tactics often involve trade-offs between mating success and survival to sexual maturity, resulting in differential investment in shared traits driven by disruptive selection. Selection on intrinsic growth can lead t...
Absence of Cytoplasmic Incompatibility and High Vertical Wolbachia Transmission in a Neotropical Drosophilid [0.03%]
中热带果蝇中缺乏胞质不相容性和高水平的垂直式沃尔巴克体感染
Marina Magalhães Moreira,Luísa de Paula Bouzada Dias,Yoan Camilo Guzman et al.
Marina Magalhães Moreira et al.
Intracellular endosymbionts such as Wolbachia are generally thought to persist in host populations by inducing reproductive phenotypes that enhance maternal transmission, often at the expense of male hosts. Here, we examined the fitness con...
Among-trait covariance and cross-year repeatability for direct and indirect individual effects in producer-scrounger behaviour in wild house sparrows [0.03%]
野生房燕觅食行为中个体直接和间接效应的性状协方差和年际一致性分析
Corné de Groot,Rori E Wijnhorst,Ådne Messel Nafstad et al.
Corné de Groot et al.
Variation in traits expressed during social interactions can be attributed to direct individual effects (DIEs) of the focal individual's identity and indirect individual effects (IIEs) of social partner identity. When of genetic origin and ...
Hidden in the dark: complex evolutionary history revealed by genome-wide analyses of cave amphipods [0.03%]

Symbiosis is considered a source of evolutionary innovation. Example innovations that have evolved in symbioses include new organs, morphological adaptations, and metabolic abilities. However, it is unknown whether symbiosis is special with...
Expression of Heat Shock Proteins and thermal sensitivity of male fertility across six Drosophila species [0.03%]
六种果蝇的热休克蛋白表达和雄性生育能力的温度敏感性

Understanding the mechanisms that confer resilience to thermal stress is crucial in the context of climate change. Recently there has been increasing focus on sublethal effects of high temperatures, such as on reproduction. Male fertility i...

Theory suggests that a population with a narrower niche can adapt more rapidly to environmental change, all else being equal. However, a narrow niche may be correlated with other factors that compromise evolvability, such as a smaller popul...
