THE DIVERGENCE OF SOXE GENE FUNCTION DURING VERTEBRATE EVOLUTION
(2014-05-09)
Evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) is the study of how developmental mechanisms that shape organisms have changed through evolutionary time. A central question in evo-devo asks how early vertebrates may have ...
Molecular basis of ecdysteroid mediated limb regeneration in the fiddler crab, Uca pugilator
(2014-05)
Regeneration is a biological phenomenon that provides an organism the ability to recapitulate part of embryonic development as an adult. The capacity to regenerate is not limited to any particular group of animals; however, ...
THE ALAN SHEPARD (SHEP) GENE REGULATES NEURONAL REMODELING DURING METAMORPHOSIS
(2014)
Peptidergic neurons are a group of neuronal cells that synthesize and secrete peptides to regulate a variety of biological processes. To identify genes controlling the development and function of peptidergic neurons, our ...
The Evolution Of Reproductive Isolation In A Temporally Complex Passerine Hybrid Zone
(2014)
Understanding the relative importance of reproductive isolating barriers between populations allows us learn what processes are most prevalent in causing speciation. Hybrid zones, where distinguishable populations interbreed, ...
Sexual signaling in conflicts and their resolutions in odonates
(2014-12)
Nature abounds with conflicts and searching for the best solution to conflicts is of interest to all animals. Among various means to resolve conflicts, signaling may be superior because it can potentially settle conflicts ...
THE CENTRAL PATTERN GENERATORS FOR SWIMMING AND SCRATCHING ARE PARTLY SHARED OR INTERACT AT THE INTERNEURONAL LEVEL IN ADULT TURTLES.
(2014-12)
Distinct rhythmic behaviors involving a common set of motoneurons and muscles can be generated by separate central nervous system networks, a single network, or partly overlapping networks in invertebrates. Less is known ...
