Fiber density of collagen grafts impacts rabbit urethral regeneration

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar, Kalitha Pinnagoda, Ganesh Vythilingam

There is a need for efficient and “off-the-shelf” grafts in urethral reconstructive surgery. Currently available surgical techniques require harvesting of grafts from autologous sites, with increased risk of surgical complications and added patient discomf ...

Sexual selection shapes development and maturation rates in Drosophila

Laurent Keller, Brian Dennis Hollis

Explanations for the evolution of delayed maturity usually invoke trade-offs mediated by growth, but processes of reproductive maturation continue long after growth has ceased. Here, we tested whether sexual selection shapes the rate of posteclosion matura ...

Maternal allocation of carotenoids increases tolerance to bacterial infection in brown trout

Laure Menin, Matay Hobil

Life-history theory predicts that iteroparous females allocate their resources differently among different breeding seasons depending on their residual reproductive value. In iteroparous salmonids there is typically much variation in egg size, egg number, ...

Most and Least Preferred Colours Differ According to Object Context: New Insights from an Unrestricted Colour Range

Christine Mohr, Selin Anil

Humans like some colours and dislike others, but which particular colours and why remains to be understood. Empirical studies on colour preferences generally targeted most preferred colours, but rarely least preferred (disliked) colours. In addition, findi ...

Location choice with longitudinal WiFi data

Michel Bierlaire, Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent, Antonin Danalet, Loïc Tinguely

Location-aware data collection technologies provide new insights about location choices. Only a few dynamic models of location choice exist in scientific literature. To our knowledge, none of them correct for serial correlation. In this paper, we model cho ...

Antiviral drug resistance as an adaptive process

Kristen Kay Irwin, Jeffrey David Jensen

Antiviral drug resistance is a matter of great clinical importance that, historically, has been investigated mostly from a virological perspective. Although the proximate mechanisms of resistance can be readily uncovered using these methods, larger evoluti ...

No Scope for Social Modulation of Steroid Levels in a Year-Round Territorial Damselfish

Katarina Damjanovic

Both latitude and mating system have been proposed to shape relationships between steroid hormone levels and social behavior. Recently it has been postulated that species with long lasting non-seasonal territorial behavior have low androgen responsiveness. ...

Molecular Mechanism of Flocculation Self-Recognition in Yeast and Its Role in Mating and Survival

Sandor Kasas, Livan Bladimir Alonso Sarduy, Jens Nielsen

We studied the flocculation mechanism at the molecular level by determining the atomic structures of N-Flo1p and N-Lg-Flo1p in complex with their ligands. We show that they have similar ligand binding mechanisms but distinct carbohydrate specificities and ...

Evolution of uni- and bifactorial sexual compatibility systems in fungi

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Mating systems, that is, whether organisms give rise to progeny by selfing, inbreeding or outcrossing, strongly affect important ecological and evolutionary processes. Large variations in mating systems exist in fungi, allowing the study of their origin an ...

Transitions from reproductive systems governed by two self-incompatible loci to one in fungi

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Self-incompatibility (SI), a reproductive system broadly present in plants, chordates, fungi, and protists, might be controlled by one or several multiallelic loci. How a transition in the number of SI loci can occur and the consequences of such events for ...
