Adaptive gene expression divergence inferred from population genomics. [PDF]
Detailed studies of individual genes have shown that gene expression divergence often results from adaptive evolution of regulatory sequence. Genome-wide analyses, however, have yet to unite patterns of gene expression with polymorphism and divergence to

Measuring gene expression divergence: the distance to keep [PDF]
Background Gene expression divergence is a phenotypic trait reflecting evolution of gene regulation and characterizing dissimilarity between species and between cells and tissues within the same species.

Cis-regulatory divergence in gene expression between two thermally divergent yeast species [PDF]
AbstractGene regulation is a ubiquitous mechanism by which organisms respond to their environment. While organisms are often found to be adapted to the environments they experience, the role of gene regulation in environmental adaptation is not often known. In this study, we examine divergence incis-regulatory effects between twoSaccharomycesspecies,S.

Expression Divergence in Response to Sex-biased Selection. [PDF]
Abstract It remains debated whether greater degrees of sexual dimorphism would evolve if not for intersexual genetic constraints. Here, we used experimental evolution to partially break the intersexual genetic constraint in Drosophila melanogaster to investigate the effects of a shared gene pool on the evolution of sexual dimorphism ...

Local adaptation contributes to gene expression divergence in maize. [PDF]
Abstract Gene expression links genotypes to phenotypes, so identifying genes whose expression is shaped by selection will be important for understanding the traits and processes underlying local adaptation. However, detecting local adaptation for gene expression will require distinguishing between divergence due to selection and ...

Diverging Expressions of Anharmonicity in Halide Perovskites
AbstractLead‐based halide perovskite crystals are shown to have strongly anharmonic structural dynamics. This behavior is important because it may be the origin of their exceptional photovoltaic properties. The double perovskite, Cs2AgBiBr6, has been recently studied as a lead‐free alternative for optoelectronic applications.

Evolutionary divergence of Firre localization and expression
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are rapidly evolving and thus typically poorly conserved in their sequences. How these sequence differences affect the characteristics and potential functions of lncRNAs with shared synteny remains unclear. Here we show that the syntenically conserved lncRNA Firre displays distinct expression and localization patterns in ...

Evolutionary significance of gene expression divergence [PDF]
Recent large-scale studies of evolutionary changes in gene expression among mammalian species have led to the proposal that gene expression divergence may be neutral with respect to organismic fitness. Here, we employ a comparative analysis of mammalian gene sequence divergence and gene expression divergence to test the hypothesis that the evolution of

Arabidopsis thaliana Expresses Three Divergent Srp54 Genes [PDF]
The Arabidopsis thaliana Srp54 gene family was determined to consist of three genes, all of which were cloned and sequenced. In addition, cDNAs corresponding to two of the genes were obtained. To our knowledge this is the first description of multiple Srp54 genes within an organism.

Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) are involved in environmental stress response and plant development, such as heat stress and flowering development. According to the structural characteristics of the HSF gene family, HSF genes were classified into
