Gonadotropins and their receptors' genes carry several single-nucleotide polymorphisms
resulting in endocrine genotypes modulating reproductive parameters, diseases, and …

Characterizing the population history of a species and identifying loci underlying local
adaptation is crucial in functional ecology, evolutionary biology, conservation and …

Germline inactivating mutations of isoform 4 of phosphodiesterase (PDE) 11A (coded by the
PDE11A gene) have been associated with familial adrenocortical tumors and familial …

The gut is a first point of contact with ingested xenobiotics, where chemicals are metabolized
directly by the host or microbiota. Atrazine is a widely used pesticide, but the role of the …

The purpose of this book is to present a new mechanistic theory of mutation-driven evolution
based on recent advances in genomics and evolutionary developmental biology. The theory …

POPTREE software, including the command line (POPTREE) and the Windows
(POPTREE2) versions, is available to perform evolutionary analyses of allele frequency …

Common walnut (Juglans regia L) is an economically important species cultivated
worldwide for its high-quality wood and nuts. It is generally accepted that after the last …

Climate change can markedly impact biology, population ecology, and spatial patterns of
eruptive insects due to the direct influence of temperature on insect development and …

Understanding the genetics of adaptation is a central focus in evolutionary biology. Here, we
use a population genomics approach to examine striking parallel morphological …

Background Genetic diversity within a species reflects population evolution, ecology, and
ability to adapt. Genome-wide population surveys of both natural and introduced …
