Evolutionary ecology of opsin gene sequence, expression and repertoire. [PDF]

, 2017
Linking molecular evolution to biological function is a long-standing challenge in evolutionary biology. Some of the best examples of this involve opsins, the genes that encode the molecular basis of light reception.

Evolution of antibiotic cross‐resistance and collateral sensitivity in Staphylococcus epidermidis using the mutant prevention concentration and the mutant selection window

Evolutionary Applications, 2020
In bacteria, evolution of resistance to one antibiotic is frequently associated with increased resistance (cross‐resistance) or increased susceptibility (collateral sensitivity) to other antibiotics.

Evolutionary and demographic correlates of Pleistocene coastline changes in the Sicilian wall lizard Podarcis wagleriana [PDF]

, 2019
Aim Emergence of coastal lowlands during Pleistocene ice ages might have provided conditions for glacial expansions (demographic and spatial), rather than contraction, of coastal populations of temperate species. Here, we tested these predictions in the

Predators can influence the host‐parasite dynamics of their prey via nonconsumptive effects

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Ecological communities are partly structured by indirect interactions, where one species can indirectly affect another by altering its interactions with a third species. In the absence of direct predation, nonconsumptive effects of predators on prey have

Drift, not selection, shapes toll-like receptor variation among oceanic island populations [PDF]

, 2015
Understanding the relative role of different evolutionary forces in shaping the level and distribution of functional genetic diversity among natural populations is a key issue in evolutionary and conservation biology.

The first chromosome-scale genome assembly of a microcyclic rust, Puccinia silphii

BMC Genomics
Background Rust fungi are destructive pathogens in crop plants, having led to epidemics and damaging crops all over the world. The rust Puccinia silphii (Basidiomycota) infects Silphium integrifolium, which is a member of the most speciose plant family ...

A genetic toolkit underlying the queen phenotype in termites with totipotent workers

Scientific Reports
Social insect castes (e.g., queens, workers) are prime examples of phenotypic plasticity (i.e., different phenotypes arising from the same genotype). Yet, the mechanisms that give rise to highly fertile, long-lived queens versus non-reproducing, short ...
