Ecological disruptive selection acting on quantitative loci can drive sympatric speciation

open access: yesnpj Systems Biology and Applications
The process of speciation generates biodiversity. According to the null model of speciation, barriers between populations arise in allopatry, where, prior to biology, geography imposes barriers to gene flow.

Female mate choice of male signals is unlikely to promote ecological adaptation in Enchenopa treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
A key question in speciation research is how ecological and sexual divergence arise and interact. We tested the hypothesis that mate choice causes local adaptation and ecological divergence using the rationale that the performance~signal trait ...

Complex genome evolution in Anopheles coluzzii associated with increased insecticide usage in Mali. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In certain cases, a species may have access to important genetic variation present in a related species via adaptive introgression. These novel alleles may interact with their new genetic background, resulting in unexpected phenotypes.

Practical Lithium–Sulfur Batteries: An Integrated Design Roadmap from High‐Loading Cathodes to High‐Energy Pouch Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review presents an integrated design roadmap for practical lithium–sulfur batteries, moving beyond isolated material breakthroughs to the synergistic combination of three interdependent frontiers: Scale‐Up, Electrolyte‐Cathode Synergy, and AI/ML Data‐Driven Design.

Hybridization and genome evolution II: Mechanisms of species divergence and their effects on evolution in hybrids

open access: yesCurrent Zoology, 2013
Recent genomic studies have highlighted the importance of hybridization and gene exchange in evolution. We ask what factors cause variation in the impact of hybridization, through adaptation in hybrids and the likelihood of hybrid speciation.

The conceptual structure of evolutionary biology: A framework from phenotypic plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this review, I approach the role of phenotypic plasticity as a key aspect of the conceptual framework of evolutionary biology. The concept of phenotypic plasticity is related to other relevant concepts of contemporary research in ...

Self‐Activating Electrocatalysts for Water Splitting: Advancing Structure–Performance Understanding and Beyond

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐activating electrocatalysts offer strong potential for advanced water splitting, enabled by their dynamic compositional and structural evolution during operation. This review highlights recent advances in self‐activating OER and HER catalysts, emphasizing the driving forces and mechanisms underlying their adaptive behavior. A conceptual network of

Evolutionary biology for the 21st century [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
New theoretical and conceptual frameworks are required for evolutionary biology to capitalize on the wealth of data now becoming available from the study of genomes, phenotypes, and organisms - including humans - in their natural environments.Molecular ...

Toward Intelligent Multimodal Holography for Real‐Time Chemical Imaging of Dynamic Ion Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Intelligent multimodal holography integrates digital off‐axis holography, spectroscopic imaging, and AI‐driven reconstruction to visualize ion transport and chemical dynamics in real time. In this perspective paper, we outline how this approach enables label‐free, chemically specific monitoring of complex environments and discuss its potential to ...

What We Have Also Learned: Adaptive Speciation is Theoretically Possible [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A recent Perspectives article by Gavrilets (2003) on the theory of speciation ignored advances in understanding processes of adaptive speciation, in which the splitting of lineages is an adaptation caused by frequency-dependent selection.
