Abstract: Significance Endosymbiotic organelles like mitochondria and plastids fundamentally shaped eukaryotic evolution. Genetic integration, the host control of endosymbiont functions via endosymbiotic gene transfer and import of host-encoded proteins, is ubiquitously observed in these classic organelles… read more here.

Abstract: The vertebrate stress response comprises a suite of behavioural and physiological traits that must be functionally integrated to ensure organisms cope adaptively with acute stressors. Natural selection should favour functional integration, leading to a prediction… read more here.
