From bias to bliss: Racial preferences and worker productivity in tennis

Contemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate the impact of differences in consumers' racial preferences on worker productivity through the example of the home advantage (HA) effect using data on wins in men's tennis from 2001 to 2020 (pre‐COVID‐19). We identify players' racial affiliation as one of five distinct groups by combining clustering and facial recognition methods.

ABSTRACT The evolution of male courtship rituals has traditionally been attributed to female mate selection, but may also

Developmental expression of Ap‐Vas proteins in aphids and flies reveals their evolutionary roles in insects

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Duplication of vas genes is universally observed in aphids, and phylogenetic analysis indicates that this event predates the divergence of Aphididae and Phylloxeridae. Ap‐vas1 is germline‐specific, whereas Ap‐vas2–4 exhibit somatic expression, indicating functional divergence during aphid embryogenesis.
