DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.24138
Abstract: Locomotion activities are part of most human daily tasks and are the basis for subsistence activities, particularly for hunter–gatherers. Therefore, differences in speed walking‐related variables may have an effect, not only on the mobility of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00239-019-09906-3
Abstract: The potential for biopolymers to evolve new structures has important consequences for their ability to optimize function and our attempts to reconstruct their evolutionary histories. Prior work with in vitro systems suggests that structural remodeling… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41437-018-0113-y
Abstract: In recent years, the belief that the genetic code is the sole basis for biological inheritance has been challenged by the discovery of trans-generational epigenetic inheritance. Environmentally induced phenotypes can in this way persist for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-15394-x
Abstract: Fisheries and climate warming are two stressors known to induce evolutionary changes in fish life histories. While their independent effects have been well documented, their interactive effects are less charted, although likely important for sustainable… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evy115
Abstract: Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) are a major driver of plant genome evolution. A part from being a rich source of new genes and regulatory sequences, TEs can also affect plant genome evolution by modifying genome… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icz015
Abstract: The environment in which eukaryotes first evolved was drastically different from what they experience today, and one of the key limiting factors was the availability of oxygen for mitochondrial respiration. During the transition to a… read more here.

Eco‐evolutionary consequences of habitat warming and fragmentation in communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Biological Reviews"
DOI: 10.1111/brv.12732
Abstract: Eco‐evolutionary dynamics can mediate species and community responses to habitat warming and fragmentation, two of the largest threats to biodiversity and ecosystems. The eco‐evolutionary consequences of warming and fragmentation are typically studied independently, hindering our… read more here.
