Abstract Changes in environmental conditions can rapidly shift allele frequencies in
populations of species with relatively short generation times. Frequency shifts might be …

Microbiology research has recently undergone major developments that have led to great
progress towards obtaining an integrated view of microbial cell function. Microbial genetics …

An efficient bacterial synthesis method to harvest cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots
(QDs) with tunable fluorescence emission using Escherichia coli is demonstrated. Ultraviolet …

The cellular response to stress relies on the rapid induction of genes encoding proteins
involved in preventing and repairing macromolecular damage incurred as a consequence of …

The Escherichia coli NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase YqhD has contributed to a

The authors are well suited to write such a book, having studied large natural populations at
the organismal and molecular levels of the heat shock response. Even during the heyday of …

A comprehensive understanding of the genetic mechanisms that shape species responses
to thermal variation is essential for more accurate predictions of the impacts of climate …

SUMMARY Eastern Sierra Nevada populations of the willow beetle Chrysomela aeneicollis
commonly experience stressfully high and low environmental temperatures that may …

The emerging field of comparative environmental genomics involves the cross-species
comparison of broad-scale patterns of gene expression. Often, the goal is to elucidate the …

Microbial evolution experiments offer a powerful approach for coupling changes in complex
phenotypes, including fitness and its components, with specific mutations. Here we …
