This study shows that antifungal selection in yeast varies with drug dose and combination, leading to distinct genomic responses and resistance mechanisms.

The paper examines genomic and transcriptomic variation in yeast to determine if cis-regulatory interactions influence aging, finding limited evidence for such interactions.

This study develops a modeling framework to investigate how fluctuating selection affects allele frequency oscillations by integrating quantitative and population genetics with simulations and spectral analysis.

This study shows that selecting Drosophila for postponed reproduction increases lifespan and immune defense, with convergent genetic changes across populations.

This study compares genetic variation in synthetic recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations created by pairwise crossing versus mixing parental strains, finding that crossing increases initial genetic variation and adaptive potential.
