- Abstract:
- ... The emergence of resistance during multidrug chemotherapy impedes the treatment of many human diseases, including malaria, TB, HIV, and cancer. Although certain combination therapies have long been known to be more effective in curing patients than single drugs, the impact of such treatments on the evolution of drug resistance is unclear. In particular, very little is known about how the evolution ...

Lucilia is a monophyletic group defined by the coâoccurrence of six characters: herbaceous, alternateâleaved, pappus with scabrid bristles fused at the base into a ring, styleâbranches with sweeping hairs far down, capitula sessile, and aseptateâflagellate hairs. A ...

- Abstract:
- ... The evolutionary processes and genetics underlying local adaptation at a specieswide level are largely unknown. Recent work has indicated that a frameshift mutation in a member of a family of transcription factors, C‐repeat binding factors or CBFs, underlies local adaptation and freezing tolerance divergence between two European populations of Arabidopsis thaliana. To ask whether the specieswide e ...

As a consequence, the study of ecological speciation has become an extremely productive research area in modern evolutionary biology. Recent innovations in sequencing technologies offer an unprecedented opportunity to study the mechanisms involved in ecological s ...

Cyanobacteria have evolved a significant environmental adaptation, known as a CO₂-concentrating-mechanism (CCM), that vastly improves photosynthetic performance and survival under limiting CO₂ concentrations. The CCM functions to transport and accumulate inorganic carbon actively (Ci; HCO[Formula: see text], and CO₂) within the cell where the Ci pool is utilized to provide elevated CO₂ concentrati ...

A classical example is Ectodysplasin (Eda), the major gene controlling lateral plate phenotype in three‐spined stickleback. Completely plated marine stickleback populations evolved repeatedly towards low‐plated freshwater populations, representing a prime example of pa ...

The first records of the tapeworm genus Pedibothrium from nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum) in the eastern Pacific and eastern Atlantic Oceans provide new insights on the age of the association between these tapeworms and this host. Four individuals of G. cirratum examined from the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula, Mexico, were found to host P. manteri and P. brevispine. Tapeworm specimens d ...

- Abstract:

Many weedy rice populations have evolved similar adaptive traits, considered part of the ‘agricultural weed syndrome’, making this an ideal model to study the genetic basis of parallel evolution. Understanding parallel evolution hinges on accurate knowledge of the gen ...

Sets of three or more branches with perfectly concordant changes occurred to a greater extent t ...

It was found that the sym-genes are present in microorganisms isolated only from the nodules of the analyzed plants (sym ⁺ strains) ...

Hybridization and polyploidization on the one hand and convergent character evolution on the other have made delimitation of species difficult.

Complex worker caste systems have contributed to the evolutionary success of advanced ant societies; however, little is known about the developmental processes underlying their origin and evolution.

Repeated parallel speciation resulting in taxa that differ in duetting songs but not in appearance or ecology suggests an atypical mode of speciation, one ...

Leptocauly leads to parallel evolution and specific multiplication. Nomenclatural artifices ...
