A common gene drive language eases regulatory process and eco-evolutionary extensions

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background Synthetic gene drive technologies aim to spread transgenic constructs into wild populations even when they impose organismal fitness disadvantages. The extraordinary diversity of plausible drive mechanisms and the range of selective parameters

The birth of a bacterial tRNA gene by large-scale, tandem duplication events

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Organisms differ in the types and numbers of tRNA genes that they carry. While the evolutionary mechanisms behind tRNA gene set evolution have been investigated theoretically and computationally, direct observations of tRNA gene set evolution remain rare.

Why is cyclic dominance so rare?

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Natural populations can contain multiple types of coexisting individuals. How does natural selection maintain such diversity within and across populations?

Optimizing crop rotations via Parrondo’s paradox for sustainable agriculture

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Crop rotation, a sustainable agricultural technique, has been at humanity’s disposal since time immemorial and is practised globally. Switching between cover crops and cash crops helps avoid the adverse effects of intensive farming.

The Bio-Evolutionary Approach to Religions: A Study of David Wilson's Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهشنامه فلسفه دین, 2021
Biologically, one of the most important and distinguishing features of human beings compared to early mammals is culture, which includes political and social institutions, religious and moral traditions.

Evolutionary theory

open access: yes, 2020
This article explores how biological theories of evolution have been applied to the area of organizations. We review the processes of selection, adaptation, learning, retention, co‐evolution, and strategic intent and how they fit together to determine both organizational success and change at the level of populations and communities.

Understanding evolutionary and ecological dynamics using a continuum limit

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Continuum limits in the form of stochastic differential equations are typically used in theoretical population genetics to account for genetic drift or more generally, inherent randomness of the model. In evolutionary game theory and theoretical ecology,

Evolving social behavior through selection of single-cell adhesion in Dictyostelium discoideum

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum commonly forms chimeric fruiting bodies. Genetic variants that produce a higher proportion of spores are predicted to undercut multicellular organization unless cooperators assort positively.
