Programmed cell death (PCD), the genetically controlled active cellular suicide mechanism in multicellular organisms, also exists in unicellular organisms. However, explaining the evolution of PCD by natural selection in these organisms rem...
Adaptations and maladaptations due to evolution at constant, but not at fluctuating temperatures [0.03%]
恒定温度而非波动温度下的适应与非适应性进化

Climate change exposes populations to more frequent periods of extreme temperatures and faster temperature fluctuations. Theoretical models suggest that different types of adaptations should occur in constant versus fluctuating environments...
Polymorphism in a metabolic gene involved in sexual selection shapes global gene expression profiles in the bulb mite males [0.03%]
一个与性选择相关的代谢基因的多态性塑造了球螨雄性的全球基因表达谱型

Agata Plesnar-Bielak et al.
Uncovering the genetic basis of sexually selected traits and traits involved in sexual conflict is a key to understand the association between sexual and non-sexual fitness. 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6Pgdh) is a metabolic gene assoc...
Evolution of the olfactory system during the radiation of Heliconiini butterflies [0.03%]

Sensory system evolution plays a crucial role in shaping species' interactions with their environment, yet the extent to which olfactory system diversity reflects ecological and evolutionary pressures at a macroevolutionary scale remains un...
Decline in offspring quantity but not quality from successive matings in male rainforest Drosophila, with no evidence for genetic divergence in male mating behaviour along elevational and density gradients [0.03%]
在随纬度和密度变化的雨林果蝇种群中，雄性连续交配后代数量减少而质量不变，未发现雄性交配行为存在遗传差异的证据
Andrew D Saxon,Eleanor K O&#x;Brien,Natalie E Jones et al.
Andrew D Saxon et al.
Fertilisation success is a major component of male fitness, meaning males should capitalise on all opportunities for mating. However, other sources of variation in fitness mean that males often evolve life histories that limit their ability...
Major Histocompatibility Complex modulation of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and Ranavirus infections in amphibians [0.03%]
两栖动物MHC对壶菌和弹尾病毒的调节作用

Genetic variation in immune genes is an important component of genetic diversity. The genes in the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) provide an excellent model system for studying the mechanisms that generate and maintain genetic diver...
Convergent pathways of reductive mitochondrial evolution characterised with hypercubic inference [0.03%]
基于高维推理的线粒体逆向进化汇聚途径分析

For a striking example of mitochondrial behaviour beyond ATP generation, consider mitochondrion-related organelles (MROs). Hydrogenosomes, mitosomes, and other reduced mitochondrial forms have evolved through the loss of physical and functi...
Phylogenetic Comparative Methods for Studying Adaptation: The Adaptation-Inertia Framework [0.03%]

Jason Pienaar et al.
Phylogenetic comparative methods are a major tool for evaluating macroevolutionary hypotheses. Methods based on the mean-reverting stochastic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process allow for modeling adaptation on a phenotypic adaptive landscape that i...
Simple maternal effect animal models may provide biased estimates of additive genetic and maternal variation [0.03%]
简单的母体效应动物模型可能会对加性和母体遗传变异的估计产生偏差
Joel L Pick,Craig A Walling,Loeske E B Kruuk

Maternal effects (the consistent effect of a mother on her offspring) can inflate estimates of additive genetic variation (VA) if not properly accounted for. As they are typically assumed to cause similarities only among maternal siblings, ...

Plasticity plays an important role in species persistence under environmental change. Morphological traits are well-known to respond to various ecological factors like temperature and predation, but less is known about the effect of social ...
