The diversity of eco-evolutionary dynamics: comparing the feedbacks between ecology and evolution across scales [PDF]

, 2019
1.Evidence of reciprocal influences between ecological and evolutionary processes (eco‐evolutionary dynamics) is accumulating at different levels of biological organisation, ranging from populations to communities and even ecosystems.

The Collection of Zoosporic Eufungi at the University of Michigan (CZEUM): introducing a new repository of barcoded Chytridiomyceta and Blastocladiomycota cultures

IMA Fungus, 2020
We formed the Collection of Zoosporic Eufungi at the University of Michigan (CZEUM) in 2018 as a cryopreserved fungal collection consolidating the University of Maine Culture Collection (UMCC, or JEL), the University of Alabama Chytrid Culture Collection

Paralog transcriptional differentiation in the D. melanogaster-specific gene family Sdic across populations and spermatogenesis stages

Communications Biology, 2023
How recently originated gene copies become stable genomic components remains uncertain as high sequence similarity of young duplicates precludes their functional characterization.

Sexual conflict drives micro- and macroevolution of sexual dimorphism in immunity

BMC Biology, 2021
Background Sexual dimorphism in immunity is believed to reflect sex differences in reproductive strategies and trade-offs between competing life history demands. Sexual selection can have major effects on mating rates and sex-specific costs of mating and

Microplastic exposure across trophic levels: effects on the host–microbiota of freshwater organisms

Environmental Microbiome, 2022
Background Microplastics are a pervasive pollutant widespread in the sea and freshwater from anthropogenic sources, and together with the presence of pesticides, they can have physical and chemical effects on aquatic organisms and on their microbiota ...

Adaptive divergence in resistance to herbivores in Datura stramonium [PDF]

PeerJ, 2015
Defensive traits exhibited by plants vary widely across populations. Heritable phenotypic differentiation is likely to be produced by genetic drift and spatially restricted gene flow between populations.

An introduction to niche construction theory [PDF]

, 2016
Niche construction refers to the modification of selective environments by organisms. Theoretical and empirical studies of niche construction are increasing in importance as foci in evolutionary ecology.

Correction to: Specificity of resistance and geographic patterns of virulence in a vertebrate hostparasite system

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
After publication of the original article [1], the authors have notified us that the incorrect version of Fig. 4 was used. Below you can find the both incorrect and correct versions of the figure.

Scorpionfish rapidly change colour in response to their background

Frontiers in Zoology, 2023
Background To facilitate background matching in heterogenous environments, some animals rapidly change body colouration. Marine predatory fishes might use this ability to hide from predators and prey. Here, we focus on scorpionfishes (Scorpaenidae), well-
