Investigating Evolutionary Innovation in Yeast Heat Shock Protein 90
TLDR
A modified version of EMPIRIC was used to examine the impact of environmental stress on the adaptive potential, costs and evolutionary constraints for a 118 amino acid functional region of the middle domain of yeast Hsp90 under endogenous expression levels and the entire HSp90 protein sequence under low expression levels.
Recurrent Formation, Low Levels of Ecological Differentiation, and Secondary Dispersal Facilitate the Establishment and Persistence of Autopolyploids in Eriophyllum lanatum
The ecology of subindividual variability in plants: patterns, processes, and prospects
TLDR
An overview of current knowledge on plant traits that vary subindividually, the magnitude of subindividual variation, and its spatial patterning is provided, and the recently emerging links between genetics, epigenetics, subindividualVariation, and population ecology are illustrated.
Haldane’s view of natural selection
TLDR
In his late writings, J. S. Haldane repeatedly drew attention to situations in which natural selection did not operate, was hemmed in by constraints, or worked in a surprising manner.
Polyploidy and interspecific hybridization: partners for adaptation, speciation and evolution in plants
TLDR
Polyploidy results in immediate genetic redundancy and represents, with the emergence of new gene functions, an important source of novelty in plant evolution, and is illustrated by the huge angiosperm diversity that is assumed to originate from recurrent polyploidization events.
Advancement in Evolutionary Theories
TLDR
Studying evolution in the light of evolutionary models, including punctuated equilibrium and phyletic gradualism, can possibly help with understanding the mechanism behind the process.
It's More than 'Just How Women Think': Explaining the Nature and Causes of Gender Gaps in Social Policy Preferences
Women hold political beliefs that differ systematically from those of men, a phenomenon scholars call “gender gaps.” The collective opinions of women tend to favor social welfare policies and…
