Females often choose their mates, instead of mating at random, even when a father contributes nothing but genes to his offspring. Costly female preferences for males with exaggerated traits that ...

鉴于研究组在植物与传粉昆虫协同演化领域的进展和贡献，国际知名植物学主流期刊 New Phytologist 邀请罗世孝研究组撰写Tansley Insight综述文章，该文于近日以题为“New insights into coevolution between plants and their cryptic pollinators”的论文在线发表 (DOI: 10.1111/nph.20450) ...

The progression of carcinomas to high-grade malignancies is accompanied by profound histological changes in the tumor-associated stroma. Although previous studies have suggested that mesenchymal cells ...

Most of life’s diversity on Earth is found in the tropics and such as occurs on the African continent. Stable climatic conditions have allowed many species to coexist and fine-tune their behaviours ...

Predator and prey maintain a close relationship to each other: if one evolves, the other must keep pace. Such coevolution and its accompanying selection pressure leads to mutual adaptation of the two ...

According to a new study, the first louse to take up residence on a mammalian host likely started out as a parasite of birds. That host-jumping event tens of millions of years ago began the long ...

When scientists attempt to understand how climate change might reshape our environment, they must grapple with the seemingly endless complexity of interacting systems. For those considering the likely ...
