Gene PRDM9, responsible for the location of recombination hotspots in mammals (including humans), exhibits one of the highest mutation rate in the human genome. This high mutation rate has a direct impact on the life expectancy of recombina...
Inbreeding reduces the ability of young to exploit high-resource nurseries [0.03%]
近亲繁殖降低了幼鸟成长利用高资源抚育场所的能力

Parents of many species create a "nursery" in which young develop, and variation in this environment can influence offspring phenotype and fitness. Recent studies have demonstrated that behavioral interactions within these nurseries may mod...
Metagenomic spaces: a framework to study the effect of microbiome variation on animal ecology and evolution [0.03%]

Microorganisms are essential for the normal functioning of most vertebrates. Hence, identifying and measuring the factors that shape host-associated microbial communities is necessary to understand ecological and evolutionary implications o...
Asymmetric barriers to gene flow can maintain sex role differentiation upon secondary contact [0.03%]

Acquiring a mate and providing parental care require substantial time and energy. Evolution typically favours allocating more effort to one of these actions at the expense of the other. Differences between the sexes in such allocation are c...
PhenoLearn: A user-friendly Toolkit for Image Annotation and Deep Learning-Based Phenotyping for Biological Datasets [0.03%]
PhenoLearn:一种用于图像注释和基于深度学习的表型分析的用户友好的工具包以分析生物数据集

Social partners frequently resemble each other. These correlations between the phenotypes of interacting individuals (e.g. social partners, group members, etc.) can be caused by multiple processes. These processes include joint plasticity i...
Sexual selection and population spatial structure interact to shape sex-specific evolutionary responses in physiology [0.03%]
性选择和种群空间结构相互作用以塑造生理学上的性别特异性进化反应
Maider Iglesias-Carrasco,Giulia Tamburrino,Miguel Lozano et al.
Maider Iglesias-Carrasco et al.
Different selection pressures acting on females and males arising from sexual selection and sexual conflict may lead to sex-specific phenotypic expression of physiological traits. Importantly, sexual selection is affected by ecological and ...
Can transcriptome size and off-target effects explain the contrasting evolution of mitochondrial vs nuclear RNA editing? [0.03%]
转录组大小和脱靶效应能解释线粒体RNA编辑与核RNA编辑的进化差异吗?
