Genetic Mechanism of Non-Targeted-Site Resistance to Diquat in Spirodela polyrhiza

Plants
Understanding non-target-site resistance (NTSR) to herbicides represents a pressing challenge as NTSR is widespread in many weeds. Using giant duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza) as a model, we systematically investigated genetic and molecular mechanisms of ...

Exploring the phylogeography of a hexaploid freshwater fish by RAD sequencing

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
The KwaZulu‐Natal yellowfish (Labeobarbus natalensis) is an abundant cyprinid, endemic to KwaZulu‐Natal Province, South Africa. In this study, we developed a single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) dataset from double‐digest restriction site‐associated DNA (

Diversity of enzymes for exopolysaccharide synthesis in the fructophilic honeybee symbiont Apilactobacillus kunkeei

BMC Microbiology
Background Apilactobacillus kunkeei is a fructophilic lactic acid bacterium adapted to honeybees, their food sources and products. These bacteria synthesize exopolysaccharides thought to promote host colonization and protection against toxic compounds ...

Selection in molecular evolution

Studies in History and Philosophy of Science
Evolution requires selection. Molecular/chemical/preDarwinian evolution is no exception. One molecule must be selected over another for molecular evolution to occur and advance. Evolution, however, has no goal. The laws of physics have no utilitarian desire, intent or proficiency.

Filtration of airborne eDNA outperforms leaf swabs for terrestrial vertebrate detection in a temperate mixed forest with longer filtration times performing the best

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Advances in collection of environmental DNA (eDNA) through active air filtration and sampling from vegetation (leaf swabs) have demonstrated the promise of using airborne eDNA for terrestrial vertebrate surveys.

Bulk Segregant Analysis Reveals Genomic Regions Associated With Imidacloprid Resistance in the Colorado Potato Beetle

Ecology and Evolution
Given the increased accessibility of genomic techniques, the speed of evolution of resistance, and the large number of genes involved in resistance, investigations into the genetic basis of resistance in more species are pertinent.

Molecular Evolution of Corona-And Toroviruses

, 1999
Coronaviruses belong to the newly established Nidovirales—the second order (in addition to the Mononegavirales) in animal virus taxonomy. They comprise a group of enveloped, positive-stranded RNA viruses infecting mammals and birds. The order consists of the bigeneric family Coronaviridae, to which the genera Coronavirus and Torovirus have been ...
