Changing the shape of craniofacial bones can profoundly alter ecological function, and understanding how developmental conditions sculpt skeletal phenotypes can provide insight into evolutionary adaptations. Thyroid hormone (TH) stimulates ...
Comparative reconstruction of the predatory feeding structures of the polyphenic nematode Pristionchus pacificus [0.03%]
模式秀丽隐杆线虫捕食摄食结构的比较重建研究

Clayton J Harry
Pristionchus pacificus is a nematode model for the developmental genetics of morphological polyphenism, especially at the level of individual cells. Morphological polyphenism in this species includes an evolutionary novelty, moveable teeth,...
Sex-specific evolution of a Drosophila sensory system via interacting cis- and trans-regulatory changes [0.03%]
顺式和反式调控变化的相互作用驱动果蝇感觉系统的性别特异性进化
David Luecke,Gavin Rice,Artyom Kopp
David Luecke
The evolution of gene expression via cis-regulatory changes is well established as a major driver of phenotypic evolution. However, relatively little is known about the influence of enhancer architecture and intergenic interactions on regul...
Growth rate mediates hidden developmental plasticity of female yellow dung fly reproductive morphology in response to environmental stressors [0.03%]
生长率介导了雌性黄粪蝇应对环境胁迫的生殖形态的潜在发育可塑性
Richard J Walters,David Berger,Wolf U Blanckenhorn et al.
Richard J Walters et al.
Understanding how environmental variation influences even cryptic traits is important to clarify the roles of selection and developmental constraints in past evolutionary divergence and to predict future adaptation under environmental chang...
Complex genetic architecture of three-dimensional craniofacial shape variation in domestic pigeons [0.03%]
家鸽颅面三维形状变异的复杂遗传结构

Elena F Boer
Deciphering the genetic basis of vertebrate craniofacial variation is a longstanding biological problem with broad implications in evolution, development, and human pathology. One of the most stunning examples of craniofacial diversificatio...
Symmetry in graptolite zooids and tubaria (Pterobranchia, Hemichordata) [0.03%]
三叶形动物和半索动物中枝虫纲体腔对称性分析
Jörg Maletz
Jörg Maletz
Extant and fossil pterobranchs show distinct symmetry conditions of the individual zooids and their tubaria that are not necessarily comparable. The strict bilateral symmetry in the zooids of extant Cephalodiscida is modified to a considera...
Size and shape regional differentiation during the development of the spine in the nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) [0.03%]
九带犰狳(Dasypus novemcinctus)脊柱发育过程中的形态和大小的区域分化
Jillian D Oliver,Katrina E Jones,Stephanie E Pierce et al.
Jillian D Oliver et al.
Xenarthrans (armadillos, anteaters, sloths, and their extinct relatives) are unique among mammals in displaying a distinctive specialization of the posterior trunk vertebrae-supernumerary vertebral xenarthrous articulations. This study seek...
Selection on genes associated with the evolution of divergent life histories: Gamete recognition or something else? [0.03%]
与不同生活史进化相关的基因选择: gamete识别或其他?
Vanessa I Guerra,Gwilym Haynes,Maria Byrne et al.
Vanessa I Guerra et al.
Gamete compatibility, and fertilization success, is mediated by gamete-recognition genes (GRGs) that are expected to show genetic evidence of a response to sexual selection associated with mating system traits. Changes in the strength of se...
Conservation biology meets evo-devo: How understanding the emergence of variation can inform its management [0.03%]
