What associative learning in insects tells us about the evolution of learning and fixed behavior [PDF]

, 2015
Contemporary models for the evolution of learning suggest that environmental predictability plays a critical role in whether learning is expected to evolve in a particular species, a claim originally made over 50 years ago.

Alternative Evolutionary Pathways for Drug-Resistant Small Colony Variant Mutants in Staphylococcus aureus

mBio, 2017
Staphylococcus aureus is known to generate small colony variants (SCVs) that are resistant to aminoglycoside antibiotics and can cause persistent and recurrent infections. The SCV phenotype is unstable, and compensatory mutations lead to restored growth,

Evolution of E. coli in a mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease leads to a disease-specific bacterial genotype and trade-offs with clinical relevance

Gut Microbes, 2023
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a persistent inflammatory condition that affects the gastrointestinal tract and presents significant challenges in its management and treatment.

Strong selection and high mutation supply characterize experimental Chlorovirus evolution

, 2022
Characterizing how viruses evolve expands our understanding of the underlying fundamental processes, such as mutation, selection and drift. One group of viruses whose evolution has not yet been extensively studied is the Phycodnaviridae, a globally ...

Experimental Evolution of Parasites

Science, 1998
Serial passage experiments are a form of experimental evolution that is frequently used in applied sciences; for example, in vaccine development. During these experiments, molecular and phenotypic evolution can be monitored in real time, providing insights into the causes and consequences of parasite evolution.

Antifungal Exposure and Resistance Development: Defining Minimal Selective Antifungal Concentrations and Testing Methodologies

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
This scoping review aims to summarise the current understanding of selection for antifungal resistance (AFR) and to compare and contrast this with selection for antibacterial resistance, which has received more research attention.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Experimental and theoretical models of cultural evolution [PDF]

, 2014
This thesis contributes to the field of cultural evolution by presenting two experimental and two theoretical models of cultural evolution. Prior to presenting these I survey existing experimental and theoretical models of cultural evolution.

Repeatability and Predictability in Experimental Evolution

, 2019
Independent populations often use the same phenotypic and genetic solutions to adapt to a selective challenge, suggesting that evolution is surprisingly repeatable.
