The molecular mechanisms of coevolution between plants and insects remain elusive.
GABA receptors are targets of many neurotoxic terpenoids, which represent the most diverse …

Identifying the genetic mechanisms of adaptation requires the elucidation of links between
the evolution of DNA sequence, phenotype, and fitness. Convergent evolution can be used …

Speciation and hybridization are intertwined processes in the study of evolution.
Hybridization between sufficiently diverged populations can result in genomic conflict within …

Heterotrophic plants are evolutionary experiments in genomic, morphological, and
physiological change. Yet, genomic sampling gaps exist among independently derived …

Background Independent origins of carnivory in multiple angiosperm families are fabulous
examples of convergent evolution using a diverse array of life forms and habitats. Previous …

Expanding knowledge of the C 4 photosynthetic pathway can provide key information to aid
biological improvements to crop photosynthesis and yield. While the C 4 NADP-ME pathway …

Mutualistic symbiosis and eusociality have developed through gradual evolutionary
processes at different times in specific lineages. Like some species of termites and ants …

Understanding the evolution of binary traits, which affects the birth and survival of species
and also the rate of molecular evolution, remains challenging. In this work, we present a …
