Though structurally distinct in invertebrates, a core MN1 sequence was preserved during vertebrate evolution. In jawed vertebrates, MN1 gained a new short exon encoding a C-terminal domain that ...

Birds are the most diverse land vertebrate on the planet, and now scientists have constructed a complete evolutionary tree of the 11,000 or so known species. This data came from hundreds of studies ...

Cell type functional segregation explains the evolutionary emergence of axonal circuits in nervous-system evolution. For example, the wiring of the vertebrate retina and of the nose–hypothalamus ...

The more species of Homo there were, the higher the rate of speciation. So when those niches got filled, something drove even more species to emerge. This is almost unparalleled in evolutionary ...

A new article by UNSW Sydney researchers published in Trends in Ecology & Evolution suggests that introducing herbivorous insects or animals to control invasive weeds might be triggering a ...

Here, we perform comparative evolutionary analyses of RIPK1–5 and associated proteins in vertebrates to identify lineage-specific rapid evolution of RIPK3 and RIPK1 and recurrent loss of ...

They say that everyone should learn at least one new thing a day, and thanks to the University of Alberta, that will be incredibly easy this spring. From dinosaurs and space to history and bugs, the U ...

You can have a quiet afternoon reading a book on a bench in the sometimes nearly empty, tree-lined Central Park area of Icon of the Seas while thousands of vacationers are frolicking about at the ship ...
