Researchers use a Monte Carlo simulation & genetic algorithm to model effects of host & food availability on energy investment, egg number and size in wasp parasitoids. When high host/food availability, parasitoids invested in egg number. #MUevolution20 https://t.co/u6JzbrUBnU
This article investigates the sexual selection of crickets and how males select their female partners based on the potential fecundity of their future daughters. https://t.co/DoV04tM4pb #MuEvolution20
Researchers studied the relationship between mating behavior and brain size in guppies. Results suggest that female brain size may be related to decision making for mating, while male brain size may impact skills for attracting mates. #MUevolution20 https://t.co/lFciH0JLHX
Scientists talk about the defining characteristics for avialan teeth. They can conclude that there was a reduction in biting force that affected the evolution of teeth from the transition of dinosaurs to birds.

This article researches and further discusses the evolution of the extended period of juvenility of primates. #muevolution20 https://t.co/AOYnhwlRMR
Researchers looked for parasite infection in 237 raccoons to look at the diversity of the MHC DRB locus and determine if frequency of MHC alleles is shaped by parasite pressure. The invasive species showed quick response to this pressure. #MUevolution20 https://t.co/YLB1mWjBSc
Although the maximum temperature limit for eukaryotes is roughly 62°C, thermophilic fungi are known to be an exception. Fungi gradually adapted to these extreme environments in search of nutrients that they previously were deprived of.

This study believed sexual dimorphism occurs due to sexual selection but found a lack of divergence in sex comb traits of 2 species of Drosophila. They hypothesized stabilizing selection/sexually antagonistic coevolution may be responsible. https://t.co/j28x02YNko #MUEvolution20
Mate preferences in an isolated owl population are examined in order to better analyze mechanisms for sexual selection. The results demonstrate evidence for MHC-based mate choice.

This article suggests that the medical field must further research and accept the relationships and evolutionary concepts of antibiotic resistance, aging, and diseases. https://t.co/UnRr4uYA7E #MUevolution20
Mechanisms for domain arrangements within 5 major eukaryotic clades were analyzed. Rearrangements are based on mutations whose rates are relatively consistent and narrow in range. We‘re now able to compare rearrangement rates between clades

Scientists' understanding of the forces that shape the evolution of inbreeding is largely incomplete. This study found that inbreeding could drive evolutionary transitions between hermaphroditism and separate sexes

The Hepatitis virus is no stranger to humans, but as of late it is beginning to spread to other species. This paper describes how the humans hepatitis virus may have ancient zoonotic origins.

Scientists can now show reticulate evolution (the merging of 2 lineages to form a new lineage) within the genus Potentilla. Consequently, they have demonstrated the importance of studying/working with low-copy markers in light of evolution.

This study is about the positive and negative feedback effects on the environmental changes which can have a further effect on other species. https://t.co/f0SAMTCOtr #MuEvolution20
Researchers tested two hypotheses for the evolution of lizard signalling glands and found evidence for phylogenetic inertia and adaptation. This paper also describes several selection factors that play an important role. #MUevolution20

When benthic Aegisthidae gen. 1 and Cerviniellinae subfam. nov. are placed as the most basal lineages using DNA based phylogenies, the deep-sea origins of Aegisthidae can be observed. Associated lifestyles can also be determined.

Within a type of moth, if you reduce the diapause period in the E strain, the active life period experiences about a 4*C colder environment when compared to the Z strain. The E strains are also 60% more likely to survive a cold shock.

In chromosome 19 orthologs, there is a high pattern of GC and CpG. This is present from humans to mouse lemurs, meaning that it represents about 74 million years of primate evolution.
