The Evolutionary Consequences of Selection at the Haploid Gametic Stage [PDF]
As an immediate consequence of sexual reproduction, biphasic life cycles with alternating diploid and haploid phases are a common characteristic of sexually reproducing eukaryotes. Much of our focus in evolutionary biology has been directed toward dynamics in diploid or haploid populations, but we rarely consider selection occurring during both phases ...

Genomic consequences and selection efficacy in sympatric sexual versus asexual kelps
Genetic diversity can influence resilience and adaptative capacity of organisms to environmental change. Genetic diversity within populations is largely structured by reproduction, with the prevalence of asexual versus sexual reproduction often ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

On the Evolutionary Consequences of Disruptive Selection [PDF]
Abstract Allo scopo di analizzare le conseguenze evolutive della selezione divergente sono state considerate quattro linee di Drosophila melanogaster ottenute sia mediante selezione direttiva (HH, LL) sia mediante selezione divergente (HL, LH) per la lunghezza dell'ala.

ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive

Immune response from a resource allocation perspective
The immune system is a life history trait that can be expected to trade off against other life history traits. Whether or not a trait is considered to be a life history trait has consequences for the expectation on how it responds to natural selection ...
