Sex‐Specific Ultraviolet Radiation Tolerance Across Drosophila
This study investigates the genetic basis of phenotypic differences between two species of Drosophila, D. santomea and D. yakuba, focusing on their adaptation to UV tolerance and stress. Genomic and empirical evidence shows that island populations of D.

Molecular diversity and phylogentic analysis of Capsicum annuum varieties using the nrDNA ITS region
Abstract The genus Capsicum with its special flavour has been cultivated as a vegetable crop and spread throughout the American, African and Asian tropics. Because the genus Capsicum has various species and varieties, the clear species discrimination is always a focal point of research.

Abstract Background The skin microbiota maintains a physical and immunological barrier to the environment. Little is known about how the microbiome changes over time or the effect of hand hygiene practices and moisturizer use. Objectives To assess sex‐specific changes in skin bacteria over time, and how the microbiome is related to self‐reported hand ...

Phylogentic trees based on 16S rRNA and gyrA gene sequences.docx
To identify EA19 strain, an endophytic bacterium, phylogenetic trees were constructed using Neighbour-Joining method based on 16S rRNA and gyrA gene sequences and bootstrap test was carried out with 1000 replications.

Abstract Mediterranean landscapes were drastically affected by high levels of abandonment of agricultural and other land practices during the last century. These changes in land use can have significant effects on diversity patterns by altering disturbance and competition equilibria within plant communities at the landscape level.

Pattern-based phylogenetic distance estimation and tree reconstruction [PDF]
We have developed an alignment-free method that calculates phylogenetic distances using a maximum likelihood approach for a model of sequence change on patterns that are discovered in unaligned sequences.

RiceRBP: A resource for experimentally identified RNA binding proteins in Oryza sativa
RNA binding proteins (RBPs) play an important role not only in nuclear gene expression, but also in cytosolic events, including RNA transport, localization, translation and stability. Although over 200 RBPs are predicted from the Arabidopsis genome alone,

Our goal was to interrogate the idea that “mountain passes are higher in the tropics” by investigating ecological and biogeographic drivers of elevational range‐sizes patterns among equatorial flora. We used herbarium records for 60 species‐rich plant families, representing 18 535 species total, to estimate distributions over a 4500 m elevational ...

Phylogenetic diversity and biodiversity indices on phylogenetic networks
In biodiversity conservation it is often necessary to prioritize the species to conserve. Existing approaches to prioritization, e.g. the Fair Proportion Index and the Shapley Value, are based on phylogenetic trees and rank species according to their ...
