Evolution of the genetic code. Emergence of stop codons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
What could cause the emergence of non-encoding codons in the course of evolution of the genetic code? Hypothesis of evolution of the genetic code from GC to the AGUC-alphabet account for existence of stop codons.

Creationism and evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In Tower of Babel, Robert Pennock wrote that “defenders of evolution would help their case immeasurably if they would reassure their audience that morality, purpose, and meaning are not lost by accepting the truth of evolution.” We first consider the ...

Exponential Dichotomy and Trichotomy for Skew-Evolution Semiflows in Banach Spaces [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
The paper emphasizes the properties of exponential dichotomy and exponential trichotomy for skew-evolution semiflows in Banach spaces, by means of evolution semiflows and evolution cocycles. The approach is from uniform point of view. Some characterizations which generalize classic results are also provided.

Taking the redpill: Artificial Evolution in native x86 systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
In analogon to successful artificial evolution simulations as Tierra or avida, this text presents a way to perform artificial evolution in a native x86 system. The implementation of the artificial chemistry and first results of statistical experiments are presented.

Natural families in evolution algebras [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
In this paper we introduce the notion of evolution rank and give a decomposition of an evolution algebra into its annihilator plus extending evolution subspaces having evolution rank one. This decomposition can be used to prove that in non-degenerate evolution algebras, any family of natural and orthogonal vectors can be extended to a natural basis ...

The relative importance of regional and local factors in shaping zooplankton diversity in high-altitude tropical shallow lakes

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2020
In Brazil, although, high-altitude shallow lakes comprise large parts of conservation units and are considered highly important environments for biodiversity studies, little is known about the factors that regulate the zooplankton community.

The evolution of social norms [PDF]

open access: yes
Evolutionary game theory provides the tools to analyze which strategies, or patterns of behaviour, emerge over time through a process of adaptation. Social norms can be defined as patterns of behaviour with certain characteristics.

Evolution of Complexity

open access: yes, 2007
The evolution of complexity has been a central theme for Biology [2] and Artificial Life research [1]. It is generally agreed that complexity has increased in our universe, giving way to life, multi-cellularity, societies, and systems of higher ...

SLIM: a flexible web application for the reproducible processing of environmental DNA metabarcoding data

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background High-throughput amplicon sequencing of environmental DNA (eDNA metabarcoding) has become a routine tool for biodiversity survey and ecological studies. By including sample-specific tags in the primers prior PCR amplification, it is possible to
