Three general models by which cooperation can evolve and be maintained are distinguished: directed reciprocation—cooperation with individuals who give in return; shared genes— cooperation with relatives (e.g., kin selection); and byproduct benefits —cooperation as an incidental consequence of selfish action.

Analysis of the 5' end of the large-subunit ribosomal RNA gene from 14 dinoflagellate isolates indicates that rates of molecular, morphological, biochemical and behavioral change are similar among branches leading to symbiotic and free-living dinofLagellates.
Mitochondrial DNA sequencing reveals extreme genetic differentiation in a cryptic species complex of neotropical pseudoscorpions.
The neotropical pseudoscorpion Cordylochernes scorpioides (Chernetidae: Lamprochernetinae) is currently described as a single species ranging from Central America to northern Argentina. However,…
A shift to parasitism in the jellyfish symbiont Symbiodinium microadriaticum

The dynamic nature of this symbiosis is demonstrated and the potential ease with which beneficial symbionts can evolve into parasites is illustrated, as a trade-off was detected between harm caused to hosts and symbiont fitness.
A new species of subterranean blind salamander (Plethodontidae: Hemidactyliini: Eurycea: Typhlomolge) from Austin, Texas, and a systematic revision of central Texas paedomorphic salamanders

The sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene are used to infer the phylogeny of described species of central Texas Eurycea, and these data support the major groups reported previously on the basis of other DNA and allozyme data.

The sequence of 4,823 bp of mitochondrial DNA from the same specimen, including the entire genes for cytochrome b, 12S rRNA, 16S r RNA, four tRNAs, and the control region is obtained, indicating substantial divergence between the Indonesian and Comorean populations.
PCP gene family in Symbiodinium from Hippopus hippopus: low levels of concerted evolution, isoform diversity, and spectral tuning of chromophores.

The first genomic characterization of the PCP gene family from a symbiotic dinoflagellate is presented, and it is proposed that this variation represents nucleotide diversity amongPCP gene copies that are evolving under low-level concerted evolution.
