Beyond Algorithmic Phase Transitions: Integrating Evolutionary Contingency, Biophysical Constraints, and System‐Level Organization in Eukaryogenesis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Understanding the origins and determinants of biological complexity requires integrating theoretical and empirical perspectives across the tree of life. The present work discusses a recent theoretical proposal suggesting that the emergence of eukaryotes can be understood as an algorithmic phase transition governed by universal scaling laws in ...

Translocation effects on regional and local population viability and connectivity [PDF]
Abstract Translocations and reintroductions aim to improve the viability of isolated populations and promote connectivity for large carnivores. However, there is no established framework for assessing their success. We used the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in western and central Europe to assess the impact of translocations on the viability of six ...

Predictive evolutionary genomics: principles, validation, and practice [PDF]
Summary Climate change and habitat loss are driving rapid evolutionary responses in populations world‐wide, which creates an urgent need for evolutionary forecasting in conservation and agriculture. Such forecasting can be categorized into three time scales: trait‐based models that use multivariate quantitative genetic equations to project correlated ...

Conservation implications of low contemporary connectivity along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge in hydrothermal vent gastropods [PDF]
Abstract Polymetallic sulfide deposits produced at hydrothermal vent fields are targets for mining exploitation along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge, threatening the functioning and resilience of vent ecosystems that provide multiple ecosystem services. Knowledge about connectivity between vents will inform conservation practices.

Challenging Patterns of Fine‐Scale Genetic Structure in Galicia and East‐to‐West Genetic Divergence Across the Iberian Peninsula—When Technical Batches Rewrite History [PDF]
Findings reported by Bycroft et al. [1] for the Iberian Peninsula, including ultra‐fine population structure in Galicia, East–West genetic differentiation, and North African ancestry associated with the ‘Reconquista’ period, may be influenced by technical artifacts and sampling limitations within the EPICOLON Phase I dataset.

Tell Me How Much DNA You Have and I'll Tell You What Your Sex Is: Sex Determination by Flow Cytometry of Spiderlings of Allocosa marindia [PDF]
The manuscript addresses the sex determination of spiderlings of the wolf spider Allocosa marindia using flow cytometry. Spiders are born with a defined sex, but it is not possible to determine their sex phenotypically until the adult or near‐adult stage. Sex identification at early stages of development is of great interest for studies in evolutionary

Isonymy and inbreeding in Boyacá, Colombia: Implications for rare disease risk
The frequency of rare and orphan genetic diseases is high in some populations in the Colombian department of Boyacá. This is arguably associated with the elevated consanguinity in the region, which can increase autozygosity and the expression of ...
