Adaptive landscapes and protein evolution [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
The principles governing protein evolution under strong selection are important because of the recent history of evolved resistance to insecticides, antibiotics, and vaccines. One experimental approach focuses on studies of mutant proteins and all combinations of mutant sites that could possibly be intermediates in the evolutionary pathway to ...

Integrating the landscape epidemiology and genetics of RNA viruses: rabies in domestic dogs as a model [PDF]

, 2012
Landscape epidemiology and landscape genetics combine advances in molecular techniques, spatial analyses and epidemiological models to generate a more real-world understanding of infectious disease dynamics and provide powerful new tools for the study of

Repeatability of evolution on epistatic landscapes [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2015
Abstract Evolution is a dynamic process. The two classical forces of evolution are mutation and selection. Assuming small mutation rates, evolution can be predicted based solely on the fitness differences between phenotypes. Predicting an evolutionary process under varying mutation rates as well as varying fitness

Amazonia: landscape and species evolution: a look into the past [PDF]

, 2010
The book focuses on geological history as the critical factor in determining the present biodiversity and landscapes of Amazonia. The different driving mechanisms for landscape evolution are explored by reviewing the history of the Amazonian Craton, the ...

ORDNA: Deep‐learning‐based ordination for raw environmental DNA samples

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has revolutionized biodiversity monitoring, offering non‐invasive tools to assess ecosystem health. The complexity of eDNA metabarcoding data poses major challenges for conventional ordination methods in ...

The evolution of the subglacial landscape of Antarctica [PDF]

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2010
The aim is to investigate the evolution of the subglacial landscape of Antarctica using an ice sheet and erosion model. We identify different stages of continental glaciation and model the erosion processes associated with each stage. The model links erosion to the basal thermal regime and indicates that much of the Antarctic interior may have been ...

The Role of “Adult‐Onset” Cancer Predisposition Genes in Pediatric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current literature estimates that 10% of pediatric cancers are caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants in cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). Variants in CPGs thought to increase cancer risk exclusively during adulthood are referred to as “adult‐onset” CPGs (aoCPGs).

Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA

Ecology and Evolution
Traditional methods of biodiversity monitoring are often logistically challenging, time‐consuming, require experienced experts on species identification, and sometimes include destruction of the targeted specimens.

Tephra data from varved lakes of the Last Glacial–Interglacial Transition: towards a global inventory and better chronologies on the Varved Sediments Database (VARDA) [PDF]

Earth System Science Data
The Varved Sediments Database (VARDA) was launched in 2020 and aimed to establish a community database for annually resolved chronological archives with their associated high-resolution proxy records.
