Molecular mechanisms for environmentally induced and evolutionarily rapid redistribution (plasticity) of meiotic recombination [0.03%]
环境诱导的快速重新分布(可塑性)的分子机制/meiotic重组进化较快 Redistribution (Plasticity) of Meiotic 重组.meiotic重组的快速重新分布(可塑性)的分子机制

It has long been known (circa 1917) that environmental conditions, as well as speciation, can affect dramatically the frequency distribution of Spo11/Rec12-dependent meiotic recombination. Here, by analyzing DNA sequence-dependent meiotic r...
Genomic signature of sexual reproduction in the bdelloid rotifer Macrotrachella quadricornifera [0.03%]

Bdelloid rotifers, common freshwater invertebrates of ancient origin and worldwide distribution have long been thought to be entirely asexual, being the principal exception to the view that in eukaryotes the loss of sex leads to early extin...

The replicative nature and generally deleterious effects of transposable elements (TEs) raise an outstanding question about how TE copy number is stably contained in host populations. Classic theoretical analyses predict that, when the decl...
Olfactory receptor subgenome and expression in a highly olfactory procellariiform seabird [0.03%]
高度依赖嗅觉的海鸟的嗅觉受体亚基因组及其表达

Simon Yung Wa Sin et al.
Procellariiform seabirds rely on their sense of smell for foraging and homing. Both genomes and transcriptomes yield important clues about how olfactory receptor (OR) subgenomes are shaped by natural and sexual selection, yet no transcripto...
The auxin-inducible degron 2 (AID2) system enables controlled protein knockdown during embryogenesis and development in Caenorhabditis elegans [0.03%]
辅助蛋白降解系统(AID2)可以实现对线虫胚胎及发育过程中的蛋白质敲低
Takefumi Negishi,Saho Kitagawa,Natsumi Horii et al.
Takefumi Negishi et al.
Targeted protein degradation using the auxin-inducible degron (AID) system is garnering attention in the research field of Caenorhabditis elegans, because of the rapid and efficient target depletion it affords, which can be controlled by tr...
The relative impact of evolving pleiotropy and mutational correlation on trait divergence [0.03%]
逐渐形成的连锁和变异数值对特征差异的相对影响
Jobran Chebib,Frédéric Guillaume
Jobran Chebib
Both pleiotropic connectivity and mutational correlations can restrict the decoupling of traits under divergent selection, but it is unknown which is more important in trait evolution. To address this question, we create a model that permit...
Evolutionarily conserved genetic interactions between nphp-4 and bbs-5 mutations exacerbate ciliopathy phenotypes [0.03%]
nphp-4和bbs-5突变之间的进化保守的基因互作加重了纤毛疾病表型
Melissa R Bentley-Ford,Melissa LaBonty,Holly R Thomas et al.
Melissa R Bentley-Ford et al.
Primary cilia are sensory and signaling hubs with a protein composition that is distinct from the rest of the cell due to the barrier function of the transition zone (TZ) at the base of the cilium. Protein transport across the TZ is mediate...

Understanding the organization and evolution of social complexity is a major task because it requires building an understanding of mechanisms operating at different levels of biological organization from genes to social interactions. I disc...
