An Insight of RuBisCO Evolution through a Multilevel Approach
RuBisCO is the most abundant enzyme on earth; it regulates the organic carbon cycle in the biosphere. Studying its structural evolution will help to develop new strategies of genetic improvement in order to increase food production and mitigate CO2 ...

Abstract Reduction in population size, with its predicted effects on population fitness, is the most alarming anthropogenic impact on endangered species. By introducing compatible individuals, genetic rescue (GR) is a promising but debated approach for reducing the genetic load unmasked by inbreeding and for restoring the fitness of declining ...

Modeling minimum viable population size with multiple genetic problems of small populations
Abstract An important goal for conservation is to define minimum viable population (MVP) sizes for long‐term persistence of a species. There is increasing evidence of the role of genetics in population extinction; thus, conservation practitioners are starting to consider the effects of deleterious mutations (DM), in particular the effects of inbreeding

Multiple compensatory mutations contribute to the de‐domestication of Iberian weedy rice
Weedy plants are a major constraint on agricultural productivity. Weedy rice, a weedy type of rice, invades rice fields worldwide and is responsible for reductions in rice yields. Studies to date have detected multiple independent weedy rice origins in different parts of the world.

Genomic erosion in a demographically recovered bird species during conservation rescue
Abstract The pink pigeon (Nesoenas mayeri) is an endemic species of Mauritius that has made a remarkable recovery after a severe population bottleneck in the 1970s to early 1990s. Prior to this bottleneck, an ex situ population was established from which captive‐bred individuals were released into free‐living subpopulations to increase population size ...

Remunicipalisation, Mutating Neoliberalism, and the Conjuncture
Abstract There is a growing interest in the progressive potential of remunicipalisation, a global trend for towns, cities, and even subnational regions to take formerly privatised assets and services back into public ownership. In this paper, we offer a novel conceptualisation of remunicipalisation, developing a spatialised conjunctural perspective ...

Flow-cytometry applications in plant breeding
Population growth, climate change and global warming are the great challenges facing agriculture in the 21st century. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the efficiency of selection of new varieties in plant breeding programs.

Individual‐based simulations of genome evolution with ancestry: The GenomeAdmixR R package
Abstract Hybridization between populations or species results in a mosaic of the two parental genomes. This and other types of genome admixture have received increasing attention for their implications in speciation, human evolution, Evolve and Resequence (E&R) and genetic mapping.
