Evolution of a core ribosomal innovation in octopus

Rishav Mitra, Richard C. Han, Trey J. Scott…·Amy S.Y. Lee

The paper identifies a unique structural break in octopus ribosomal RNA that enhances translation fidelity and supports proteomic stability through RNA editing.

Changing abiotic and biotic environments affect the genetics of adaptation and speciation

Trey J. Scott, David C. Queller

This paper models how different types of environmental change affect adaptation and speciation, finding that biotic conflicts can lead to divergence without reducing hybrid fitness.

Testing the coordination hypothesis: incompatibilities in the absence of a single-cell bottleneck in an experimentally evolved social amoeba.

Israt Jahan, Trey J. Scott, Joan E. Strassmann, David C. Queller

The paper tests the coordination hypothesis in Dictyostelium discoideum by mixing evolved clones and measuring developmental traits, finding no evidence of incompatibilities in slug movement but support for incompatibilities between migration and spore production.
