Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Loss of sexual isolation in a hybridizing stickleback species pair

open access: yesCurrent Zoology, 2013
One approach to understand the importance of reproductive barriers to the speciation process is to study the breakdown of barriers between formerly distinct species.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Prospects of utilization of inter-subspecific heterosis between indica and japonica rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
The Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) grown worldwide is divided into two subspecies, indica and japonica. It is well known that the heterosis of inter-subspecies is usually stronger than that of intra-subspecies.

Divergence and introgression among the virilis group of Drosophila

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2022
Speciation with gene flow is now widely regarded as common. However, the frequency of introgression between recently diverged species and the evolutionary consequences of gene flow are still poorly understood.

Morphometry of fruits and pyrenes in two morphotypes and populations of Butia purpurascens Glassman (Arecaceae)

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2022
: Morphometry of fruits and seeds is a useful and important information for phenotyping and genetic characterization of crop plant species and, for conservation of endangered species, as is the case of Butia purpurascens Glassman.

Crop domestication as a step toward reproductive isolation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2023
Speciation, Darwin’s mystery of mysteries, is a continuous process that results in genomic divergence accompanied by the gradual increment of reproductive barriers between lineages. Since the beginning of research on the genetics of speciation, several questions have emerged such as: What are the genetic bases of incompatibilities?

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

A tale of two morphs: modeling pollen transfer, magic traits, and reproductive isolation in parapatry.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The evolution of the flower is commonly thought to have spurred angiosperm diversification. Similarly, particular floral traits might have promoted diversification within specific angiosperm clades.

New species based on the biological species concept within the complex of Lariophagus distinguendus (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea, Pteromalidae), a parasitoid of household pests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
The pteromalid parasitoid Lariophagus distinguendus (Foerster) belongs to the Hymenoptera, a megadiverse insect order with high cryptic diversity. It attacks stored product pest beetles in human storage facilities.
