The ecology-evolution continuum and the origin of life. [PDF]
Prior research on evolutionary mechanisms during the origin of life has mainly assumed the existence of populations of discrete entities with information encoded in genetic polymers. Recent theoretical advances in autocatalytic chemical ecology establish

On the origin of life: an RNA-focused synthesis and narrative. [PDF]
Darwin's assertion that “it is mere rubbish thinking, at present, of origin of life” is no longer valid. By synthesizing origin of life (OoL) research from its inception to recent findings, with a focus on (i) proof-of-principle prebiotically plausible ...

Clays and the Origin of Life: The Experiments. [PDF]
There are three groups of scientists dominating the search for the origin of life: the organic chemists (the Soup), the molecular biologists (RNA world), and the inorganic chemists (metabolism and transient-state metal ions), all of which have ...

Thermodynamics of evolution and the origin of life. [PDF]
Significance We employ the conceptual apparatus of thermodynamics to develop a phenomenological theory of evolution and of the origin of life that incorporates both equilibrium and nonequilibrium evolutionary processes within a mathematical framework of ...

From the origin of life to pandemics: emergent phenomena in complex systems. [PDF]
When a large number of similar entities interact among each other and with their environment at a low scale, unexpected outcomes at higher spatio-temporal scales might spontaneously arise.

Origin of Life on Mars: Suitability and Opportunities. [PDF]
Although the habitability of early Mars is now well established, its suitability for conditions favorable to an independent origin of life (OoL) has been less certain.

Viroids and the Origin of Life. [PDF]
Viroids are non-coding circular RNA molecules with rod-like or branched structures. They are often ribozymes, characterized by catalytic RNA. They can perform many basic functions of life and may have played a role in evolution since the beginning of ...
