Abstract: There are three non-mutually-exclusive key strategies evolved by gene pools to cope with fluctuating food resource availability, including evolutionary adaptation, phenotypic plasticity, and migration. We focus primarily on evolutionary adaptation and behavioral plasticity, which is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-26443-z
Abstract: Bacteriophages are the most numerous biological entities on Earth. They are on the basis of most ecosystems, regulating the diversity and abundance of bacterial populations and contributing to the nutrient and energy cycles. Bacteriophages have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2123030119
Abstract: Significance Although strepsirrhines occupy a key node in primate phylogeny, our knowledge of this group remains quite limited. Here, we integrate comparative genomics analyses and functional assays to reveal the genetic underpinnings of evolutionary adaptation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16431
Abstract: Mixotrophs, organisms that combine photosynthesis and heterotrophy to gain energy, play an important role in global biogeochemical cycles. Metabolic theory predicts that mixotrophs will become more heterotrophic with rising temperatures, potentially creating a positive feedback… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aaw7696
Abstract: Human milk oligosaccharide transporters play key roles in symbiosis and coevolution between bifidobacteria and breast-fed infants. The human gut microbiota established during infancy has persistent effects on health. In vitro studies have suggested that human… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fenrg.2017.00032
Abstract: The evolutionary adaptation was approached on the thermotolerant yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus NIRE-K3 at 45oC on xylose as a sole source of carbon for enhancement of xylose uptake. After 60 cycles, evolved strain K. marxianus NIRE-K3.1… read more here.
