PAX6 protein in neuromasts of the lateral line system of salamanders (Eurycea)

B. A. Dobbins, R. U. Tovar, B. J. Oddo, T. J. Devitt, D. M. Hillis, D. M. Garcia

The paper identifies PAX6 expression in neuromasts of salamanders' lateral line system, suggesting a potential cytoskeleton-associated function beyond its known roles.

A tale of two paths: The evolution of mitochondrial recombination in bivalves with doubly uniparental inheritance

C. H. Smith, B. J. Pinto, M. Kirkpatrick, D. M. Hillis, J. M. Pfeiffer, J. C. Havird

This study investigates mitochondrial recombination in bivalves with doubly uniparental inheritance, finding evidence for a single origin of male mitochondrial DNA and ongoing recombination in some species.

Does breeding season variation affect evolution of a sexual signaling trait in a tropical lizard clade?

L. N. Gray, A. J. Barley, D. M. Hillis, C. J. Pavon-Vazquez, S. Poe, B. A. White

The paper tests the Fitch-Hillis Hypothesis by analyzing phylogenetic and morphological data from 44 Mexican Anolis species, finding no strong support for seasonality driving dewlap size evolution.
