TL;DR:
Onatops is the first brachylophosaurin reported from New Mexico and the southernmost occurrence of the clade, and a phylogenetic analysis places Ornatops in a trichotomy with Probrachyophosaurus and Brachylophosaurus, with Maiasaura and Acristavus as successive outgroups.

Inferring the Genetic Basis of Sex Determination from the Genome of a Dioecious Nightshade
MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 38(7), 2946–2957.
Ed(s): M. Purugganan
author keywords: sex chromosome; sex evolution; genome assembly; dioecy; Solanum
MeSH headings : Biological Evolution; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Genome, Plant; Multigene Family; Pectins / genetics; Sex Determination Processes / genetics; Solanum / genetics
TL;DR:
The first genome sequence of a dioecious Solanum is generated and it is inferred that males in this species are the heterogametic sex and observed patterns of gene-family evolution specific to S. appendiculatum consistently implicate a suite of genes from the regulatory network controlling pectin degradation and modification in the expression of sex.

Uncovering Evidence for Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals That Elicit Differential Susceptibility through Gene-Environment Interactions
[Review of ]. TOXICS, 9(4).
author keywords: endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC); gene-environment interaction (GxE); differential susceptibility
TL;DR:
It is proposed that EDCs causing such differential responses may be identified by looking for a signal of population variability after exposure, and called for further, deeper analysis of the EDCs, particularly the thyroid disruptors, to identify if these chemicals participate in GxE leading to differences in susceptibility.
