Studies on Biological Development of Hybrid Bees Families

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
It has made a study concerning the biological development of hybrid bee’s families (Italian x Carpathian) comparative with Carpathian bee’s families. The bees were housed in multi-storey hives.

What is a hologenomic adaptation? Emergent individuality and inter-identity in multispecies systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Contemporary biological research has suggested that some host–microbiome multispecies systems (referred to as “holobionts”) can in certain circumstances evolve as unique biological individual, thus being a unit of selection in evolution.

How many generations does it take for phytophages to colonize invasive plants? Mathematical modeling predictions [PDF]

open access: yesКавказский энтомологический бюллетень
Native phytophagous insects are often not adapted to novel chemistry of invasive plants, but over time they begin to adapt and feed on them. We simulated the spread of a mutant allele that enables phytophages to feed on invasive plant as efectively as on

Seasonal variation in defense behavior in European and scutellata-hybrid honey bees (Apis mellifera) in Southern California

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Nest defense in the honey bee (Apis mellifera) is a complex collective behavior modulated by various interacting social, environmental, and genetic factors. Scutellata-hybrid (“Africanized”) honey bees are usually considered to be far more defensive than

Contrasting life histories contribute to divergent patterns of genetic diversity and population connectivity in freshwater sculpin fishes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background Life history characteristics are considered important factors influencing the evolutionary processes of natural populations, including the patterns of population genetic structure of a species.

Laughter, bonding and biological evolution

open access: yesThe European Journal of Humour Research, 2022
This paper combines perspectives from evolutionary biology and linguistics to discuss the early evolution of laughter and the possible role of laughter-like vocalisation as a bonding mechanism in hominins and early human species.

Evolution and biological control [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2012
Opinions about the value of biological control are often extreme. Colloquially, biological control most often refers to classical biological control, in which one species is introduced from another region to control pests such as arthropod herbivores in agricultural systems, or weeds in managed and natural systems.1 As such, biological control has the ...

Cosmic Perspectives and the Myths We Need to Survive

open access: yesJournal of Big History, 2019
Big history can be defined as the attempt to understand the integrated history of the cosmos, Earth, life and humanity. Cosmic perspectives and biological evolution are the main scientific ingredients that can convert and broaden history into big history.

Age structure landscapes emerge from the equilibrium between aging and rejuvenation in bacterial populations

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Some daughter cells inherit the maternal old pole during bacterial division, but does this correspond to aging? Here, Proenca et al. show that constant patterns of aging and rejuvenation connect distinct growth equilibria within bacterial clonal ...

Rank Statistics in Biological Evolution

open access: yes, 2005
We present a statistical analysis of biological evolution processes. Specifically, we study the stochastic replication-mutation-death model where the population of a species may grow or shrink by birth or death, respectively, and additionally, mutations ...
