Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta‐analyses in ecology and evolutionary biology: a PRISMA extension

Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2021
Since the early 1990s, ecologists and evolutionary biologists have aggregated primary research using meta‐analytic methods to understand ecological and evolutionary phenomena.

Sex-specific growth arrest in a lizard

iScience, 2022
Summary: (1) In contrast to mammals and birds, reptiles have been considered as indeterminate growers, whose growth reflects differential allocation of resources to growth versus other energetically demanding processes such as reproduction.

Evolutionary biology of lichen symbioses.

New Phytologist, 2022
Lichens are the symbiotic outcomes of open, interspecies relationships, central to which are a fungus and a phototroph, typically an alga and/or cyanobacterium.

Heart rate as a measure of emotional arousal in evolutionary biology

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2021
How individuals interact with their environment and respond to changes is a key area of research in evolutionary biology. A physiological parameter that provides an instant proxy for the activation of the automatic nervous system, and can be measured ...

Elements of divergence in germline determination in closely related species

iScience, 2023
Summary: Evolutionary transitions are particularly important in development of the germ line, cells which directly impact sexual reproduction. Differences in the primordial germ cells (PGCs) of two sea urchin species were examined here by stage-matched ...

Role of environmentally induced epigenetic transgenerational inheritance in evolutionary biology: Unified Evolution Theory

Environmental epigenetics, 2021
The current evolutionary biology theory primarily involves genetic alterations and random DNA sequence mutations to generate the phenotypic variation required for Darwinian natural selection to act.

Towards open, reliable, and transparent ecology and evolutionary biology

BMC Biology, 2021
Unreliable research programmes waste funds, time, and even the lives of the organisms we seek to help and understand. Reducing this waste and increasing the value of scientific evidence require changing the actions of both individual researchers and the ...

Nuclear receptors EcR-A/RXR and HR3 control early embryogenesis in the short-germ hemimetabolous insect Blattella germanica

iScience, 2023
Summary: The role of steroid hormone signaling during insect post-embryonic development has been extensively characterized. However, its function during embryonic development is less understood, particularly in short-germ band hemimetabolous insects.

FishPIE: A universal phylogenetically informative exon markers set for ray-finned fishes

iScience, 2022
Summary: Understanding the evolutionary history of the highly diverse ray-finned fishes has been challenging, and the development of more universal primers for phylogenetic analyses may help overcoming these challenges. We developed FishPIE, a nested PCR
