Sex Allocation and Reproductive Success in a Perennial Hermaphroditic Herb: Both Size and Timing Matter [0.03%]
大小和时间都影响一雌雄植物的性别分配和繁殖成功

AbstractIn simultaneous hermaphrodites, resource availability and the temporal distribution of mates determine male and female fitness and optimal sex allocation. In insect-pollinated plants, we expect individuals to allocate more to their ...
Physiological Color Change in the Neotropical Tree Frog (Pithecopus hypochondrialis) as a Potential Mechanism of Nocturnal Camouflage [0.03%]
新热带树蛙(Pithecopus hypochondrialis)的生理变色可能是其夜间伪装的一种潜在机制
João Vitor de Alcantara Viana,C Guilherme Becker,Rogério Victor S Gonçalves et al.
João Vitor de Alcantara Viana et al.
AbstractAnimals employ various mechanisms for camouflage, including color change, that may facilitate habitat use. However, the extent to which these mechanisms operate under nocturnal conditions is unclear. To investigate this, we combined...

AbstractEukaryogenesis is the prototypical example of an egalitarian evolutionary transition in individuality, and endosymbiosis, more generally, is central to the origins of many complex biological systems. Why do only some symbioses under...
A Quantitative Survey of Cogradient and Countergradient Variation in Nature [0.03%]
自然界中Cogradient和Countergradient变化的量化调查研究
Molly A Albecker,Thais B Bittar,Geoffrey C Trussell et al.
Molly A Albecker et al.
AbstractGradient variation evolves when environmental and genotypic effects on a phenotype covary positively (cogradient variation) or negatively (countergradient variation) across locations, whereas gene-by-environment interactions (G × E...
The Baldwin Effect Reloaded: Intermediate Levels of Phenotypic Plasticity Favor Evolutionary Rescue [0.03%]
焕发现象再思考：表型可塑性的中间水平有利于进化救援现象发生
Amaury Lambert,Guillaume Achaz,Arnaud Le Rouzic et al.
Amaury Lambert et al.
AbstractSince the late 1890s up until today, how phenotypic plasticity interacts with genetic adaptation has been a debated issue. Proponents of a positive causal role of phenotypic plasticity-James M. Baldwin in the first place-supported t...

AbstractElevational distributions have long fascinated scientists, an interest that has burgeoned with studies of predicted upslope range shifts under climate change. However, this body of work has yielded conflicting results, perhaps due t...
Investigating Tipping and Its Predictability in Noisy Environments: Evaluating the Impact of Temporal and Species Response Correlation [0.03%]
探究噪声环境下的 tipping 及其可预测性：时空响应相关性的评估

AbstractUnderstanding and identifying factors influencing the likelihood of sudden transitions in ecological systems is a significant area of scientific research. Environmental fluctuations are particularly important, as they can trigger th...
Asymmetry in Cross-Sex Cross-Trait Genetic Covariances and the Evolvability of Sexual Dimorphism [0.03%]
种间同性异质遗传协方差的不对称性和两性差异演化的可演化性
Mathieu Videlier,Jacqueline L Sztepanacz
Mathieu Videlier
AbstractThe evolution of sexual dimorphism is predicted to resolve conflict that can arise from divergent evolutionary interests between sexes, enabling each sex to reach its fitness optimum. However, most of the genome is shared between se...
Rate of Temperature Increase and Genetic Diversity Drives Marine Metapopulation Persistence under Climate Change [0.03%]
变暖速率和遗传多样性决定了海洋元种群在气候变化下的持续性
Eojin Lee,Lisa C McManus
Eojin Lee
AbstractMetapopulations span environmental gradients and experience variable rates of environmental change, with populations differing in their tolerance and evolutionary capacity. Our study aimed to quantify the extent to which interaction...
Evolution Promotes Resilience of Marine Mixotrophic Metabolic Strategies to Thermal Stress [0.03%]
进化促进海洋半自养代谢策略对热应力的韧性
Kevin M Archibald,Stephanie Dutkiewicz,Charlotte Laufkötter et al.
Kevin M Archibald et al.
AbstractWarming induces metabolic changes in microbial organisms, including increased respiration. Empirical studies have shown that evolution can compensate for thermal sensitivity and reduce respiration rate at high temperatures. Evolutio...
