Mating strategy predicts gene presence/absence patterns in a genus of simultaneously hermaphroditic flatworms

open access: yesEvolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 3054-3066, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Gene repertoire turnover is a characteristic of genome evolution. However, we lack well‐replicated analyses of presence/absence patterns associated with different selection contexts. Here, we study ∼100 transcriptome assemblies across Macrostomum, a genus of simultaneously hermaphroditic flatworms exhibiting multiple convergent shifts in ...

An Evaluation of Generic and Disease‐Specific Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures to Assess the Impact of Percentage of Scalp Hair Loss on Health‐Related Quality of Life in a European Population

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
This study characterised health‐related quality of life among patients with alopecia areata using the EQ‐5D‐5L and the Alopecia Areata Patient Priority Outcomes (AAPPO) psychosocial subscales. Survey responses from 435 patients were stratified by physician‐reported percent of scalp hair loss (SHL). AAPPO effect sizes were largest between extreme values

Macroevolutionary patterns in marine hermaphroditism

open access: yesEvolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 3014-3025, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Most plants and many animals are hermaphroditic; whether the same forces are responsible for hermaphroditism in both groups is unclear. The well‐established drivers of hermaphroditism in plants (e.g., seed dispersal potential, pollination mode) have analogues in animals (e.g., larval dispersal potential, fertilization mode), allowing us to ...

How can interspecific pollen transfer affect the coevolution and coexistence of two closely related plant species?

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Interspecific pollen transfer (IPT), the pollen movement between plant species via shared pollinators, reduces the reproductive success of pollen‐recipient plants due to hybridization with heterospecific pollen grains. As a result, IPT hinders coexistence of sympatric, co‐flowering species by reducing their reproductive success.

Multigenerational downregulation of insulin/IGF‐1 signaling in adulthood improves lineage survival, reproduction, and fitness in Caenorhabditis elegans supporting the developmental theory of ageing

open access: yesEvolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 2829-2845, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Adulthood‐only downregulation of insulin/IGF‐1 signaling (IIS), an evolutionarily conserved pathway regulating resource allocation between somatic maintenance and reproduction, increases life span without fecundity cost in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans.

Reclaiming Korean queerness through the gender bender drama: Analyzing gender fluidity in “Coffee Prince” and “Secret Garden”

open access: yesPopular Culture Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This thesis engages in a “queering” of two South Korean television dramas, “Coffee Prince,” or “커피 프린스 1호점,” aired in 2007, and “Secret Garden” or “시크릿 가든,” aired in 2010, by exploring the complex representations and visuality of gender fluidity in tandem with queer, Marxist, and postcolonial theory.

The diverse effects of phenotypic dominance on hybrid fitness

open access: yesEvolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 2846-2863, December 2022., 2022
Abstract When divergent populations interbreed, their alleles are brought together in hybrids. In the initial F1 cross, most divergent loci are heterozygous. Therefore, F1 fitness can be influenced by dominance effects that could not have been selected to function well together. We present a systematic study of these F1 dominance effects by introducing

Parental burnout during the COVID‐19 pandemic

open access: yesFamily Process, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 1715-1729, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Increased and long‐term parental stress related to one's parental role can lead to parental burnout. In the early phase of the COVID‐19 pandemic, families experienced intensified pressure due to the government‐initiated contact restrictions applied to prevent the spread of the virus in the population.
