Detecting selection along environmental gradients: analysis of eight methods and their effectiveness for outbreeding and selfing populations : [W633] [PDF]

, 2014
Thanks to genome-scale diversity data, present-day studies can provide a detailed view of how natural and cultivated species adapt to their environment and particularly to environmental gradients.

Genomic consequences of transitions from cross- to self-fertilization on the efficacy of selection in three independently derived selfing plants

BMC Genomics, 2012
BackgroundTransitions from cross- to self-fertilization are associated with increased genetic drift rendering weakly selected mutations effectively neutral.

Heterophase fcc‐hcp‐fcc High‐Entropy Alloy Nanomaterials with Tailored Electron Divergence for Selective Ammonia Electrosynthesis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Heterophase fcc‐hcp‐fcc RuFeMMnMo (M═CoNi, Co, and Ni) high‐entropy alloy nanomaterials have been successfully synthesized using a one‐pot approach. The highly random distribution of multiple metal components and the tunable diversity of metal atomic arrangements can be realized simultaneously. By combining metals with different work functions, fcc‐hcp‐

Microenvironment Modulation‐Based Nanomaterial‐Loaded Hydrogel Dressings for Diabetic Foot Ulcers: Research Progress and Future Perspectives

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
xx xx. ABSTRACT Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a chronic complication of diabetes, primarily caused by hyperglycemia, peripheral vascular disease, and neuropathy. Characterized by persistent hyperglycemia, impaired perfusion, inflammation, and infection, DFUs pose significant challenges to healing and are associated with high morbidity and amputation ...

Life history of the land snail Habroconus semenlini (Stylommatophora: Euconulidae) under laboratory conditions

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2009
Habroconus semenlini is a micro-terrestrial gastropod native to South America. There are no previous studies on its biology. We studied its pattern of growth, fertility and lifespan under laboratory conditions.

Bayesian co-estimation of selfing rate and locus-specific mutation rates for a partially selfing population

, 2015
We present a Bayesian method for characterizing the mating system of populations reproducing through a mixture of self-fertilization and random outcrossing.

Cross- and self-fertilization of plants

Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2010
This essay considers Charles Darwin's late work, Cross- and Self-Fertilization of Plants, locating it in the overall context of Darwin's thought and ideas. It is shown how it is part of a long-term interest in the purpose of sexuality, and how it complements Darwin's earlier book on the ...
