Fitness benefits from co-display favour subdominant male-male partnerships between phenotypes

The paper models co-display behavior in male ruffs to show how subdominant males can benefit from partnerships that reduce mating skew among residents.

A temperature-sensitive Mycobacterium smegmatis glgE mutation leads to a loss of GlgE enzyme activity and thermostability and the accumulation of α-maltose-1-phosphate

This study investigates a temperature-sensitive mutation in Mycobacterium smegmatis glgE, showing it reduces enzyme activity and stability, leading to α-maltose-1-phosphate accumulation.

Predicting The Evolutionary Consequences Of Trophy Hunting On A Quantitative Trait

This study uses quantitative genetic models to show trophy hunting can cause evolutionary change in traits like horn length, but the predicted rates are much slower than previously reported statistical analyses suggest.

Modeling Adaptive and Non-adaptive Responses of Populations to Environmental Change

The paper develops models to predict population responses to environmental change by linking quantitative genetics with data-driven models, showing that evolutionary responses are slower than plastic ones and depend on plastic adaptiveness.
