Origin and diversification of the Otophysi clade during the Mesozoic: a case of mosaic evolution? [PDF]

open access: yesResearch & Knowledge, 2017
Almost all distributed today in freshwater, except by few taxa that inhabited coastal marine waters, the Otophysi clade is a group of teleostean with a formerly worldwide distribution in all continents.

A Database of Snow on Sea Ice in the Central Arctic Collected during the MOSAiC expedition

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Snow plays an essential role in the Arctic as the interface between the sea ice and the atmosphere. Optical properties, thermal conductivity and mass distribution are critical to understanding the complex Arctic sea ice system’s energy balance and mass ...

Novel Endocranial Data on the Early Therocephalian Lycosuchus vanderrieti Underpin High Character Variability in Early Theriodont Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Therocephalia is one of the major therapsid clades and ranges from the middle Permian to Middle Triassic. The earliest therocephalians were large-bodied predators whose fossils are common in middle Permian rocks of South Africa, but have received little ...

Fast mosaicing method based on image resizing pre-processing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graphic Engineering and Design, 2023
In recent years, mosaic images have found great success thanks to the increasing development in the field of imaging as well as the technological evolution of computer systems (camera, mobile, etc.).

Organelle Evolution: A Mosaic of ‘Mitochondrial’ Functions [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2014
An ancient endosymbiosis of an α-proteobacterium produced a diverse range of organelles including mitochondria. Reconstruction of the Pygsuia biforma proteome adds to the mosaic of functional systems present in mitochondrial-related organelles and demonstrates the role of horizontal gene transfer.

L1 Mosaicism in Mammals: Extent, Effects, and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Genetics, 2017
The retrotransposon LINE-1 (long interspersed element 1, L1) is a transposable element that has extensively colonized the mammalian germline. L1 retrotransposition can also occur in somatic cells, causing genomic mosaicism, as well as in cancer. However, the extent of L1-driven mosaicism arising during ontogenesis is unclear.

Extensive introgression and mosaic genomes of Mediterranean endemic lizards

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Islands can provide insights into the evolution of diverse adaptations. The genomes of 34 major lineages of Mediterranean wall lizards reveal a highly reticulated pattern of evolution across the group, characterised by mosaic genomes and showing that ...

Understanding the Evolution of Mammalian Brain Structures; the Need for a (New) Cerebrotype Approach

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2012
The mammalian brain varies in size by a factor of 100,000 and is composed of anatomically and functionally distinct structures. Theoretically, the manner in which brain composition can evolve is limited, ranging from highly modular (“mosaic evolution ...

Mosaic vaccination: How distributing different vaccines across a population could improve epidemic control

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
Although vaccination has been remarkably effective against some pathogens, for others, rapid antigenic evolution results in vaccination conferring only weak and/or short‐lived protection.

Manipulating Electrocatalysis using Mosaic Catalysts

open access: yesSmall Science, 2021
Understanding the mechanisms and developing strategies toward efficient electrocatalysis at gas–liquid–solid interfaces are important yet challenging. In the past decades, researchers have devoted many efforts to improve catalyst activity by modulating ...
