Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Positive selection and relaxed purifying selection contribute to rapid evolution of sex-biased genes in green seaweed Ulva

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution
Background The evolution of differences in gamete size and number between sexes is a cornerstone of sexual selection theories. The green macroalga Ulva, with incipient anisogamy and parthenogenetic gametes, provides a unique system to investigate ...

Strong intraspecific trait variation in a tropical dominant tree species along an elevational gradient

open access: yesPlant Diversity, 2020
Functional trait variation of plant species includes both inter- and intraspecific variation; however, trait-based plant ecology generally considers only interspecific variation while ignoring intraspecific variation.

The Molecular Phylogeny of Land Plants: Progress and Future Prospects

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Phylogenetics has become a powerful tool in many areas of biology. Land plants are the most important primary producers of terrestrial ecosystems and have colonized various habitats on Earth.

Marginal Likelihoods in Phylogenetics: A Review of Methods and Applications [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2018
By providing a framework of accounting for the shared ancestry inherent to all life, phylogenetics is becoming the statistical foundation of biology.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

An Annealed Sequential Monte Carlo Method for Bayesian Phylogenetics. [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2018
We describe an "embarrassingly parallel" method for Bayesian phylogenetic inference, annealed Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC), based on recent advances in the SMC literature such as adaptive determination of annealing parameters.

Gut microbiota diversity is prognostic in metastatic hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this exploratory study, we investigated the relationship between the gut microbiota and outcome in patients with metastatic hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer, treated in a randomized clinical trial with chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy in combination with immune checkpoint blockade.

The first mitochondrial genome of Calophyllum soulattri Burm.f.

open access: yesScientific Reports
Calophyllum soulattri Burm.f. is traditionally used to treat skin infections and reduce rheumatic pain, yet genetic and genomic studies are still limited. Here, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome of C. soulattri.

Aureoboletus projectellus (Fungi, Boletales) – Occurrence data, environmental layers and habitat suitability models for North America and Europe

open access: yesData in Brief, 2019
Aureoboletus projectellus is a bolete species native to eastern North America, which has been introduced to Central Europe. Here we present summarized data about occurrence of the fungus in both disjunctive ranges based on (1) de novo georeferencing of ...
