This study shows that uropathogenic E. coli biofilms exhibit evolutionary stratification, with gene expression becoming younger and more divergent as biofilms develop.

This study investigates the evolutionary trends in skeletal cell type emergence, finding that lineage-specific genes drove the diversification of osteoblasts and hypertrophic chondrocytes from an ancestral chondrocyte-like state.

The paper investigates whether the hourglass-shaped ontogeny-phylogeny correlation observed in Arabidopsis zygotic embryogenesis is preserved in grapevine somatic embryogenesis, finding that the heart stage has the most conserved transcriptome.
