The complete mitochondrial genome of Ricania shantungensis (Hemiptera: Ricaniidae) in Korea

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this study, we have sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Ricania shantungensis (Hemiptera: Ricaniidae) for the first time. The circular mitogenome of R.

Cartilage diversification and modularity drove the evolution of the ancestral vertebrate head skeleton

EvoDevo, 2023
The vertebrate head skeleton has evolved a myriad of forms since their divergence from invertebrate chordates. The connection between novel gene expression and cell types is therefore of importance in this process.

Evolving eco-system: a network of networks [PDF]

, 2004
Ecology and evolution are inseparable. Motivated by some recent experiments, we have developed models of evolutionary ecology from the perspective of dynamic networks.

On the methodology of feeding ecology in fish [PDF]

, 2016
Feeding ecology explains predator’s preference to some preys over others in their habitat and their competitions thereof. The subject, as a functional and applied biology, is highly neglected, and in case of fish, a uniform and consistent ...

Comparative analysis of morabine grasshopper genomes reveals highly abundant transposable elements and rapidly proliferating satellite DNA repeats

BMC Biology, 2020
Background Repetitive DNA sequences, including transposable elements (TEs) and tandemly repeated satellite DNA (satDNAs), collectively called the “repeatome”, are found in high proportion in organisms across the Tree of Life.

Island time and the interplay between ecology and evolution in species diversification. [PDF]

, 2015
Research on the dynamics of biodiversity has progressed tremendously over recent years, although in two separate directions - ecological, to determine change over space at a given time, and evolutionary, to understand change over time.

Floral traits are associated with the quality but not quantity of heterospecific stigmatic pollen loads

BMC Ecology, 2020
Background In flowering communities, plant species commonly share pollinators and therefore plant individuals receive heterospecific pollen (HP). However, the patterns of HP transfers can deviate from patterns of plant-pollinator visitations.

Predation affects body shape in the knife livebearer Alfaro cultratus (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae)

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Livebearing fishes are a common model for studying the effects of predation on prey biology. Numerous studies have found differences in life history, sexual selection, behavior, and morphology between populations of the same species that co‐occur with ...

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.

The role of eco-evolutionary experience in invasion success [PDF]

, 2013
Invasion ecology has made considerable progress in identifying specific mechanisms that potentially determine success and failure of biological invasions.
