Abstract The evolution of organisms can be studied through the lens of developmental systems, as the timing of development of morphological features is an important aspect to consider when studying a phenotype. Such data can be challenging to obtain in fossil amniotes owing to the scarcity of their fossil record. However, the numerous remains of Rancho

Endosymbiotic ratchet accelerates divergence after organelle origin
Primary endosymbiosis gave rise to mitochondria and plastids. The proximate impacts of organelle origin on lineage evolution have not been addressed at the population level. Using data from the photosynthetic amoeba Paulinella, we hypothesize that primary endosymbiosis accelerates lineage divergence, a process we refer to as the endosymbiotic ratchet ...

Hypercanines: Not just for sabertooths
Abstract Hypercanines are here defined as hypertrophied caniniform teeth, that is, canine teeth that are elongated to serve specific functions in different clades of mammals and their synapsid ancestors. This article presents an overview of the occurrence of hypercanines, their growth, and their function across a broad range of clades.

This study interpreted the differential profiles of cervicovaginal microbiota and CSTs between HC women and HPV16‐infected women with CIN I, CIN II/III or SCC. The relationship between HPV16 clearance and cervicovaginal microbiota composition in each disease stage before and after clinical treatments was also established.

Myological and osteological approaches to gape and bite force reconstruction in Smilodon fatalis
Abstract Masticatory gape and bite force are important behavioral and ecological variables. While much has been written about the highly derived masticatory anatomy of Smilodon fatalis, there remains a great deal of debate about their masticatory behaviors.
