Searching for learning-dependent changes in the antennal lobe: simultaneous recording of neural activity and aversive olfactory learning in honeybees

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Plasticity in the honeybee brain has been studied using the appetitive olfactory conditioning of the proboscis extension reflex, in which a bee learns the association between an odor and a sucrose reward.

Multilocus phylogeography and ecological niche modeling suggest speciation with gene flow between the two Bamboo Partridges

open access: yesAvian Research, 2021
Background Understanding how species diversify is a long-standing question in biology. The allopatric speciation model is a classic hypothesis to explain the speciation process. This model supposes that there is no gene flow during the divergence process

Colour polymorphism and conspicuousness do not increase speciation rates in Lacertids

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2023
Conspicuous body colours and colour polymorphism have been hypothesized to increase rates of speciation. Conspicuous colours are evolutionary labile, and often involved in intraspecific sexual signalling and thus may provide a raw material from which ...

Simultaneous Determination of U-Pb Age and Trace Elements of Zircon by Laser Ablation Sector Field Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesYankuang ceshi
Laser ablation sector field inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-SF-ICP-MS) is widely applied in U-Pb dating of zircon due to its remarkable sensitivity.

Perfect association between spatial swarm segregation and the X-chromosome speciation island in hybridizing Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae populations

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The sibling species An. coluzzii and An. gambiae s.s. are major malaria vectors thought to be undergoing sympatric speciation with gene flow. In the absence of intrinsic post-zygotic isolation between the two taxa, speciation is thought possible through ...

Mate Choice Drives Evolutionary Stability in a Hybrid Complex. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Previous studies have shown that assortative mating acts as a driver of speciation by countering hybridization between two populations of the same species (pre-zygotic isolation) or through mate choice among the hybrids (hybrid speciation).

SPECIATION AND MACROEVOLUTION [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1982
Species and higher taxa represent, phenomenologically, two very different levels in the hierarchical organization of the living world. Ever since there has been a concept of evolution, there has been the problem how one can get from the species level to that of the higher categories.

Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Catalyzed Condensation Reaction of Isocoumarins and 1,7-Heptadiamine in the Formation of Bis-Isoquinolinones

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2012
The diversified bis-isoquinolinones were obtained in two steps, utilizing homophthalic acid and various acid chlorides providing 3-substituted isocoumarins in the first step which on further condensation with 1,7-heptadiamine involving C–N bond formation

Origin and diversification of Lake Ohrid’s endemic acroloxid limpets: the role of geography and ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Ancient Lake Ohrid, located on the Albania-Macedonia border, is the most biodiverse freshwater lake in Europe. However, the processes that gave rise to its extraordinary endemic biodiversity, particularly in the species-rich gastropods, are ...
