Suppressing evolution in genetically engineered systems through repeated supplementation

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2021
Genetically engineered organisms are prone to evolve in response to the engineering. This evolution is often undesirable and can negatively affect the purpose of the engineering.

Assessment of spatial genetic structure to identify populations at risk for infection of an emerging epizootic disease

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Understanding the geographic extent and connectivity of wildlife populations can provide important insights into the management of disease outbreaks but defining patterns of population structure is difficult for widely distributed species.

Inteins as indicators of gene flow in the halobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
This research uses inteins, a type of mobile genetic element, to infer patterns of gene transfer within the Halobacteria. We surveyed 118 genomes representing 26 genera of Halobacteria for intein sequences. We then used the presence-absence profile, sequence similarity and phylogenies from the inteins recovered to explore how intein distribution can ...

GENE FLOW AND SELECTION IN A CLINE [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1973
ABSTRACT A model of the effect of gene flow and natural selection in a continuously distributed, infinite population is developed. Different patterns of spatial variation in selective pressures are considered, including a step change in the environment, a "pocket" in the environment and a periodically varying environment.

Constrained control of gene-flow models

open access: yesAnnales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré C, Analyse non linéaire, 2022
In ecology and population dynamics, gene flow refers to the transfer of a trait (e.g. genetic material) from one population to another. This phenomenon is of great relevance in studying the spread of diseases or the evolution of social features, such as languages.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Maintenance of Sympatric and Allopatric Populations in Free-Living Terrestrial Bacteria

open access: yesmBio, 2019
For free-living bacteria and archaea, the equivalent of the biological species concept does not exist, creating several obstacles to the study of the processes contributing to microbial diversification.

Reproductive Assurance Maintains Red-Flowered Plants of Lysimachia arvensis in Mediterranean Populations Despite Inbreeding Depression

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Flower color polymorphism, an infrequent but phylogenetically widespread condition in plants, is captivating because it can only be maintained under a few selective regimes but also because it can drive intra-morph assortative mating and promote ...
