Rbm24 displays dynamic functions required for myogenic differentiation during muscle regeneration

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Skeletal muscle has a remarkable capacity of regeneration after injury, but the regulatory network underlying this repair process remains elusive. RNA-binding proteins play key roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression and the ...

Genetic adaptation as a biological buffer against climate change: Potential and limitations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, 2018
Climate change profoundly impacts ecosystems and their biota, resulting in range shifts, novel interactions, food web alterations, changed intensities of host—parasite interactions, and extinctions.

Genomic signatures of adaptation to wine biological ageing conditions in biofilm‐forming flor yeasts

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2017
The molecular and evolutionary processes underlying fungal domestication remain largely unknown despite the importance of fungi to bioindustry and for comparative adaptation genomics in eukaryotes. Wine fermentation and biological ageing are performed by

Fisher's geometrical model of evolutionary adaptation - beyond spherical geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Fisher's geometrical model of evolutionary adaptation has recently been used in a variety of contexts of interest to evolutionary biologists. The renewed interest in this model strongly motivates generalizations that make it a more realistic description ...

Adaptive Biological Networks

open access: yes, 2009
Mycelial fungi and acellular slime molds grow as self-organized networks that explore new territory to search for resources, whilst maintaining an effective internal transport system in the face of continuous attack or random damage. These networks adapt during development by selective reinforcement of major transport routes and recycling of the ...

Perfect adaptation in biology.

open access: yesCell Systems, 2021
A distinctive feature of many biological systems is their ability to adapt to persistent stimuli or disturbances that would otherwise drive them away from a desirable steady state.

Resilience, Regime Shifts, and Guided Transition under Climate Change: Examining the Practical Difficulties of Managing Continually Changing Systems

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2013
Managing terrestrial systems has become increasingly difficult under climate change as unidirectional shifts in climate conditions challenge the resilience of ecosystems to maintain their compositional structure and function.
