Hybridization and adaptive radiation [PDF]
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2004 Whether interspecific hybridization is important as a mechanism that generates biological diversity is a matter of controversy. Whereas some authors focus on the potential of hybridization as a source of genetic variation, functional novelty and new ...

Adaptive radiation therapy [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Medizinische Physik, 2018 Adaptive radiation therapy is a closed-loop radiation treatment process where the treatment plan can be modified using a systematic feedback of measurements. Adaptive radiation therapy intends to improve radiation treatment by systematically monitoring treatment variations and incorporating them to re-optimize the treatment plan early on during the ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Slipper (Scyllaridae) and spiny (Palinuridae) lobsters show a complex life cycle with a planktonic larval phase, named phyllosoma. This unique larval form within Achelata (Decapoda) is characterized by a transparent dorsoventrally compressed body and a ...

Oca2 targeting using CRISPR/Cas9 in the Malawi cichlid Astatotilapia calliptera
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 Identifying genetic loci underlying trait variation provides insights into the mechanisms of diversification, but demonstrating causality and characterizing the role of genetic loci requires testing candidate gene function, often in non-model species ...

Pangenomes as a framework for adaptive radiation, speciation, and adaptation. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Understanding the genomic basis of diversification is a central goal in evolutionary biology. In recent years, the development and use of pangenomes, a genomic representation of multiple individuals within a lineage (a set of related populations, subspecies, ecotypes, or species), has enabled researchers to differentiate ...

Chromosomal Radiation: A model to explain karyotypic diversity in cryptic species [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2023 We present a concept that explains the pattern of occurrence of widely distributed organisms with large chromosomal diversity, large or small molecular divergence, and the insufficiency or absence of morphological identity.

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Symbiotic species, living within or on the surface of host organisms, may evolve a wide range of adaptations as a result of various selection pressures, host specificity of the symbiont and the nature of the symbiosis.

Plant growth forms dictate adaptations to the local climate
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Adaptive radiation is a significant driver of biodiversity. Primarily studied in animal systems, mechanisms that trigger adaptive radiations remain poorly understood in plants. A frequently claimed indicator of adaptive radiation in plants is growth form

Depth and substratum differentiations among coexisting herbivorous cichlids in Lake Tanganyika [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Cichlid fish in Lake Tanganyika represent a system of adaptive radiation in which eight ancestral lineages have diversified into hundreds of species through adaptation to various niches. However, Tanganyikan cichlids have been thought to be oversaturated,
