Evolution and respiratory genetics [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 2006 Evolution is a plausible explanation for between-population differences in particular allele frequencies if: the genes involved have related functions; the heterogeneous alleles involved have similar functional consequences; the involved genes are not linked chromosomally; and the patterns observed would result in a biologically plausible, survival ...

Evolution of the genetic code [PDF]
Transcription, 2021 Diverse models have been advanced for the evolution of the genetic code. Here, models for tRNA, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS) and genetic code evolution were combined with an understanding of EF-Tu suppression of tRNA 3rd anticodon position wobbling.

Evolution of genetic redundancy [PDF]
Nature, 1997 Genetic redundancy means that two or more genes are performing the same function and that inactivation of one of these genes has little or no effect on the biological phenotype. Redundancy seems to be widespread in genomes of higher organisms. Examples of apparently redundant genes come from numerous studies of developmental biology, immunology ...

Evolution of Genetic Potential
PLoS Computational Biology, 2005 Organisms employ a multitude of strategies to cope with the dynamical environments in which they live. Homeostasis and physiological plasticity buffer changes within the lifetime of an organism, while stochastic developmental programs and hypermutability track changes on longer time-scales.

The Genetics of Maize Evolution [PDF]
Annual Review of Genetics, 2004 ▪ Abstract Maize and its closest wild relatives, the teosintes, differ strikingly in the morphology of their female inflorescences or ears. Despite their divergent morphologies, several studies indicate that some varieties of teosinte are cytologically indistinguishable from maize and capable of forming fully fertile hybrids with maize.

The evolution of thermal performance can constrain dispersal during range shifting [PDF]
, 2015 Organisms can cope with changing temperature under climate change by either adapting to the temperature at which they perform best and/or by dispersing to more benign locations.

Mathematics, genetics and evolution [PDF]
Quantitative Biology, 2013 The importance of mathematics and statistics in genetics is well known. Perhaps less well known is the importance of these subjects in evolution. The main problem that Darwin saw in his theory of evolution by natural selection was solved by some simple mathematics.

Biology Direct, 2018 Background It is widely accepted that the last eukaryotic common ancestor and early eukaryotes were intron-rich and intron loss dominated subsequent evolution, thus the presence of only very few introns in some modern eukaryotes must be the consequence ...
