Recombination drives the evolution of mutational robustness [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Systems Biology, 2019
Recombination can impose fitness costs as beneficial parental combinations of alleles are broken apart, a phenomenon known as recombination load. Computational models suggest that populations may evolve a reduced recombination load by reducing either the likelihood of recombination events (bring interacting loci in physical proximity) or the strength ...

Determinative developmental cell lineages are robust to cell deaths. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
All forms of life are confronted with environmental and genetic perturbations, making phenotypic robustness an important characteristic of life. Although development has long been viewed as a key component of phenotypic robustness, the underlying ...

A Realistic Model under which the Genetic Code is Optimal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The genetic code has a high level of error robustness. Using values of hydrophobicity scales as a proxy for amino acid character, and the Mean Square measure as a function quantifying error robustness, a value can be obtained for a genetic code which ...

Idealised simulations of cyclones with robust symmetrically-unstable sting jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Idealised simulations of Shapiro-Keyser cyclones developing a sting jet (SJ) are presented. Thanks to an improved and accurate implementation of thermal wind balance in the initial state, it has been possible to use more realistic environments than in ...

Co-evolution, Determinism and Robustness

open access: yes, 1999
Robustness has long been recognised as a critical issue for co- evolutionary learning. It has been achieved in a number of cases, though usually in domains which involve some form of non-determinism. We examine a deterministic domain {a pseudo real-time two-player game called Tron {and evolve a neural network player using a simple hill- climbing ...

Upstream plasticity and downstream robustness in evolution of molecular networks

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2004
Background Gene duplication followed by the functional divergence of the resulting pair of paralogous proteins is a major force shaping molecular networks in living organisms.

Evolution of dominance in gene expression pattern associated with phenotypic robustness

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background Mendelian inheritance is a fundamental law of genetics. When we consider two genomes in a diploid cell, a heterozygote’s phenotype is dominated by a particular homozygote according to the law of dominance.

Degeneracy: a design principle for achieving robustness and evolvability

open access: yes, 2009
Robustness, the insensitivity of some of a biological system's functionalities to a set of distinct conditions, is intimately linked to fitness. Recent studies suggest that it may also play a vital role in enabling the evolution of species.
