Brown A, Meiborg A, Franz-Wachtel M, Macek B, Gordon S, Rog O, et al.
Genetics . 2024 Mar; 227(1). PMID: 38513719
Comparative approaches have revealed both divergent and convergent paths to achieving shared developmental outcomes. Thus, only through assembling multiple case studies can we understand biological principles. Yet, despite appreciating the...

Fraser B, Whiting J, Paris J, Weadick C, Parsons P, Charlesworth D, et al.
Genome Biol Evol . 2020 Aug; 12(10):1789-1805. PMID: 32853348
Theory predicts that the sexes can achieve greater fitness if loci with sexually antagonistic polymorphisms become linked to the sex determining loci, and this can favor the spread of reduced...

Weadick C
Genome Biol Evol . 2020 May; 12(8):1240-1255. PMID: 32426804
Zona pellucida (ZP) modules mediate extracellular protein-protein interactions and contribute to important biological processes including syngamy and cellular morphogenesis. Although some biomedically relevant ZP modules are well studied, little is...

Dong C, Weadick C, Truffault V, Sommer R
Elife . 2020 Apr; 9. PMID: 32338597
The small molecules that mediate chemical communication between nematodes-so-called 'nematode-derived-modular-metabolites' (NDMMs)-are of major interest because of their ability to regulate development, behavior, and life-history. nematodes produce an impressive diversity of...

Escalona T, Weadick C, Antunes A
Mol Biol Evol . 2017 Jun; 34(10):2522-2536. PMID: 28591857
The mitochondrial genome encodes several protein components of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway and is critical for aerobic respiration. These proteins have evolved adaptively in many taxa, but linking molecular-level...

Weadick C, Sommer R
Evol Dev . 2016 Nov; 18(5-6):297-307. PMID: 27870213
Patterns of senescence (or aging) can vary among life history traits and between the sexes, providing an opportunity to study variation in the aging process within a single species. We...

Weadick C, Sommer R
Am Nat . 2016 Mar; 187(4):517-31. PMID: 27028079
Interactions between the sexes influence evolution at many scales, but not all animal species conform to the familiar male-female (dioecious) mating system; such taxa are powerful tools for studying the...

Lin Y, Weadick C, Santini F, Chang B
J Mol Evol . 2013 Oct; 77(5-6):231-45. PMID: 24145862
Transducin is a heterotrimeric G protein that plays a critical role in phototransduction in the rod and cone photoreceptor cells of the vertebrate retina. Rods, highly sensitive cells that recover...

Weadick C, Chang B
BMC Evol Biol . 2012 Oct; 12:206. PMID: 23078361
Background: Gene duplications play an important role in the evolution of functional protein diversity. Some models of duplicate gene evolution predict complex forms of paralog divergence; orthologous proteins may diverge...

Mol Biol Evol . 2012 Jul; 29(10):3045-60. PMID: 22809797
The Trinidadian pike cichlid (Crenicichla frenata) is a major predator of the guppy (Poecilia reticulata), a model system for visual ecology research, and visual predation by the pike cichlid is...
