Invasive palms have more efficient and prolonged CO2 assimilation compared to native sub-Mediterranean vegetation

Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen, Thibaut Michel Georges Juillard, Janisse Deluigi, Marco Conedera

In sub-Mediterranean ecosystems, shade-tolerant broadleaf evergreens, especially the invasive Trachycarpus fortunei, are spreading uncontrollably in the forest understorey, impeding the regeneration of the native deciduous woody vegetation. Most invasive s ...

Multimodal characterization of murine gastruloid development

Matthias Lütolf, Alexandre Gauthier Aurèle Mayran, Stefano Davide Vianello, Raphaël Ortiz

Gastruloids are 3D structures generated from pluripotent stem cells recapitulating fundamental principles of embryonic pattern formation. Using single-cell genomic analysis, we provide a resource mapping cell states and types during gastruloid development ...

Spatial areas of genotype probability: Predicting the spatial distribution of adaptive genetic variants under future climatic conditions

Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Estelle Rochat

In a context of rapid global change, one of the key components for the survival of species is their genetic evolutionary potential for adaptation. Many methods have been developed to identify genetic variants underpinning adaptation to climate, but few too ...

Life-history trade-offs and limitations associated with phenotypic adaptation under future ocean warming and elevated salinity

Emma Mary Gibbin, Félix Christen

Little is known about the life-history trade-offs and limitations, and the physiological mechanisms that are associated with phenotypic adaptation to future ocean conditions. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated the within-and trans-generation li ...

Commensal Gut Bacteria Buffer the Impact of Host Genetic Variants on Drosophila Developmental Traits under Nutritional Stress

Bart Deplancke, Virginie Sandra Braman, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Maria Litovchenko, Michael Vincent Frochaux

Eukaryotic genomes encode several buffering mechanisms that robustly maintain invariant phenotypic outcome despite fluctuating environmental conditions. Here we show that the Drosophila gut-associated commensals, represented by a single facultative symbion ...

Likelihood-free Inference of Population Genetic Parameters from Time-Sampled Genetic Data

Hyunjin Shim

This thesis consists of five papers published in peer-reviewed journals, two of which focus on method development of time-serial inference, represented by publications in methodology journals, and three others that describe collaborative data applications ...

Experimental evolution of slowed cognitive aging in Drosophila melanogaster

Brian Dennis Hollis

Reproductive output and cognitive performance decline in parallel during aging, but it is unknown whether this reflects a shared genetic architecture or merely the declining force of natural selection acting independently on both traits. We used experiment ...

Efficient inference for genetic association studies with multiple outcomes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Jörg Hager, Hélène Ruffieux

Combined inference for heterogeneous high-dimensional data is critical in modern biology, where clinical and various kinds of molecular data may be available from a single study. Classical genetic association studies regress a single clinical outcome on ma ...

The evolution of phenotypic plasticity under global change

Emma Mary Gibbin

Marine ecosystems are currently in a state of flux, with ocean warming and acidification occurring at unprecedented rates. Phenotypic plasticity underpins acclimatory responses by shifting the mean phenotype in a population, which may buffer the negative e ...

Mitochondrial unfolded protein response, its molecular mechanism and physiological impact

Virginija Jovaisaite

Mitochondria are the main producers of ATP, the energy currency of the cell, and they perform a wide array of other fundamental functions. These organelles are essential not only for cellular metabolism, but also for organismal physiology and lifespan. A r ...
