The importance of alternative splicing in adaptive evolution [PDF]
Although alternative splicing is a ubiquitous co-transcriptional gene regulatory mechanism in plants, animals and fungi, its contribution to evolutionary transitions is understudied. Alternative splicing enables different mRNA isoforms to be generated

Experimental Evolution: The Rate of Adaptive Evolution [PDF]
Next-generation sequencing technology allows the identification of molecular changes that have arisen in the genomes of microorganisms undergoing experimental evolution. This permits the elucidation of the molecular evolutionary dynamics in these populations.

Evolution: Adapting to a Warming World [PDF]
To be able to cope with climate change, species need to evolve. Demonstrating such evolution in wild populations is notoriously difficult. Replication of a 21-year-old experiment demonstrates that a long-distance migratory songbird has genetically adapted to climate change.

Plasticity's role in adaptive evolution depends on environmental change components
To forecast extinction risks of natural populations under climate change and direct human impacts, an integrative understanding of both phenotypic plasticity and adaptive evolution is essential.

Heterogeneous Adaptive Trajectories of Small Populations on Complex Fitness Landscapes
Background Small populations are thought to be adaptively handicapped, not only because they suffer more from deleterious mutations but also because they have limited access to new beneficial mutations, particularly those conferring large benefits ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Effect of the habitat and tusks on trunk grasping techniques in African savannah elephants
Among tetrapods, grasping is an essential function involved in many vital behaviours. The selective pressures that led to this function were widely investigated in species with prehensile hands and feet.

Impact of the terrestrial-aquatic transition on disparity and rates of evolution in the carnivoran skull. [PDF]
Which factors influence the distribution patterns of morphological diversity among clades? The adaptive radiation model predicts that a clade entering new ecological niche will experience high rates of evolution early in its history, followed by a ...

ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...
