Increased Floral Divergence in Sympatric Monkeyflowers [PDF]
Sympatric sister species are predicted to have greater divergence in reproductive traits than allopatric sister species, especially if mating system shifts, such as the evolution of self-fertilization, are more likely to originate within the geographic ...

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

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

The Rosetteless gene controls development in the choanoflagellate S. rosetta. [PDF]
The origin of animal multicellularity may be reconstructed by comparing animals with one of their closest living relatives, the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta.

Ectodermal tissue excised from Xenopus embryos self‐organizes into a three‐dimensional mucociliary organoid. Here, we generate a neural variant, termed neurobot, by implanting neural precursor cells. Neurobots develop mature neurons, adopt distinct morphologies, exhibit more complex motility, and respond differentially to neuroactive compounds. Imaging

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.

The system of genetic exchange in Trypanosoma brucei and other trypanosomatids [PDF]
In this chapter, we discuss our current understanding of the systems of genetic exchange in trypanosomatids and the im-pact the recent genome projects have had on this area of research.

Genetic Diagnosis and Discovery Enabled by Large Language Models
We demonstrate that large language models (LLMs) can facilitate genetic diagnosis and discovery. LLMs were used to solve four types of genetic problems of sequentially increased complexity. An LLM‐based pipeline could analyze genetic variants in the genomic sequences of human hearing loss or rare genetic disease patients and assist in identifying ...

Cross- and self-fertilization of plants
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 ...

Protandry and Self-Fertilization in the Calyptraeidae [PDF]
ORTON1 suggested that protandrous animals might be self-fertilizing and that this would be advantageous for the spread of a species. He concluded that Crepidula fornicata was self-fertilizing because he found an isolated female guarding veliger larvae. I have kept single Crepidula in aquaria and they have laid fertilized spawn two to three months later.
