BMC Biol
. 2024 Oct;
22(1):229.
PMID: 39390511
Background: Mitochondrial genes and nuclear genes cooperate closely to maintain the functions of mitochondria, especially in the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway. However, mitochondrial genes among arthropod lineages have dramatic evolutionary...

PMID: 37946625
Studies of closely related species with known ecological differences provide exceptional opportunities for understanding the genetic mechanisms of evolution. In this study, we compared population-genomics data between Daphnia pulex and...

Mol Biol Evol
. 2023 Oct;
40(11).
PMID: 37863047
The field of genomics has ushered in new methods for studying molecular-genetic variation in natural populations. However, most population-genomic studies still rely on small sample sizes (typically, <100 individuals) from...

Mol Ecol
. 2023 Feb;
32(23):6696-6709.
PMID: 36799015
The spread of nonindigenous species by shipping is a large and growing global problem that harms coastal ecosystems and economies and may blur coastal biogeographical patterns. This study coupled eukaryotic...

BMC Med Genomics
. 2022 Sep;
15(1):195.
PMID: 36114500
Background: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues have many advantages for identification of risk biomarkers, including wide availability and potential for extended follow-up endpoints. However, RNA derived from archival FFPE samples has...

Public Health Rep
. 2022 Jul;
137(5):1023-1030.
PMID: 35848117
Objectives: The impact and risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from asymptomatic and presymptomatic hosts remains an open question. This study measured the secondary attack rates (SARs) and relative risk (RR) of...

Mol Ecol
. 2022 May;
31(14):3827-3843.
PMID: 35596742
The repeated evolution of tetrodotoxin (TTX) resistance provides a model for testing hypotheses about the mechanisms of convergent evolution. This poison is broadly employed as a potent antipredator defence, blocking...

PMID: 35113163
Importance: The COVID-19 pandemic led many higher education institutions to close campuses during the 2020-2021 academic year. As campuses prepared for a return to in-person education, many institutions were mandating...

PMID: 34726699
Although obligately asexual lineages are thought to experience selective disadvantages associated with reduced efficiency of fixing beneficial mutations and purging deleterious mutations, such lineages are phylogenetically and geographically widespread. However,...
