Urban evolution comes into its own: Emerging themes and future directions of a burgeoning field [0.03%]
城市进化时代来临:一个新兴领域中主题的浮现与未来方向
Lindsay S Miles,Elizabeth J Carlen,Kristin M Winchell et al.
Lindsay S Miles et al.
Urbanization has recently emerged as an exciting new direction for evolutionary research founded on our growing understanding of rapid evolution paired with the expansion of novel urban habitats. Urbanization can influence adaptive and nona...
Recent and rapid anthropogenic habitat fragmentation increases extinction risk for freshwater biodiversity [0.03%]
近期迅速的人为生境破碎化增加淡水生物多样性灭绝的风险

Anthropogenic habitat fragmentation is often implicated as driving the current global extinction crisis, particularly in freshwater ecosystems. The genetic signal of recent population isolation can be confounded by the complex spatial arran...
Steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) lineages and sexes show variable patterns of association of adult migration timing and age-at-maturity traits with two genomic regions [0.03%]
虹鳟(Oncorhynchus mykiss) 类型和性别与成鱼洄游时间和两个基因组区域成熟年龄特征的关联模式不同

Stuart C Willis et al.
As life history diversity plays a critical role in supporting the resilience of exploited populations, understanding the genetic basis of those life history variations is important for conservation management. However, effective application...
Population genomic data in spider mites point to a role for local adaptation in shaping range shifts [0.03%]
Population genomic data of spider mites points to the role of local adaptive evolution in shaping range-shifts
Lei Chen,Jing-Tao Sun,Peng-Yu Jin et al.
Lei Chen et al.
Local adaptation is particularly likely in invertebrate pests that typically have short generation times and large population sizes, but there are few studies on pest species investigating local adaptation and separating this process from c...
Selective sweep analysis reveals extensive parallel selection traits between large white and Duroc pigs [0.03%]
选择性扫荡分析揭示大白猪与杜洛克猪间广泛平行选择的性状
Saixian Zhang,Kaili Zhang,Xia Peng et al.
Saixian Zhang et al.
In the process of pig genetic improvement, different commercial breeds have been bred for the same purpose, improving meat production. Most of the economic traits, such as growth and fertility, have been selected similarly despite the discr...
Y-chromosome haplotypes are associated with variation in size and age at maturity in male Chinook salmon [0.03%]
Y染色体单倍型与雄性奇努克鲑鱼大小和成熟年龄的变化有关
Garrett J McKinney,James E Seeb,Carita E Pascal et al.
Garrett J McKinney et al.
Variation in size and age at maturity is an important component of life history that is influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. In salmonids, large size confers a direct reproductive advantage through increased fecundity and e...

Hermine Alexandre et al.
Most existing forests are subjected to natural and human-mediated selection pressures, which have increased due to climate change and the increasing needs of human societies for wood, fibre and fuel resources. It remains largely unknown how...
Rapid morphological change in multiple cichlid ecotypes following the damming of a major clearwater river in Brazil [0.03%]
巴西一条大型大河筑坝后慈鲷鱼多个生态型迅速发生形态变化
Michelle C Gilbert,Alberto Akama,Cristina Cox Fernandes et al.
Michelle C Gilbert et al.
While anthropogenic disturbances can have damaging effects on biodiversity, they also offer an opportunity to understand how species adapt to new environments and may even provide insights into the earliest stages of evolutionary diversific...
Host plants and Wolbachia shape the population genetics of sympatric herbivore populations [0.03%]
寄主植物和沃尔巴克体影响伴生植食者种群的群体遗传结构
Zhen Fu,Amanda R Meier,Brendan Epstein et al.
Zhen Fu et al.
Changing climate and land-use practices have the potential to bring previously isolated populations of pest insects into new sympatry. This heightens the need to better understand how differing patterns of host-plant association, and unique...
Incorporating genetic selection into individual-based models of malaria and other infectious diseases [0.03%]
遗传选择在基于个体的疟疾和其他传染病模型中的应用研究
Ian M Hastings,Diggory Hardy,Katherine Kay et al.
Ian M Hastings et al.
Introduction: Control strategies for human infections are often investigated using individual-based models (IBMs) to quantify their impact in terms of mortality, morbidity and impact on transmission. Genetic selection can...
