THE GENETIC ARCHITECTURE OF A COMPLEX ECOLOGICAL TRAIT: HOST PLANT USE IN THE SPECIALIST MOTH, HELIOTHIS SUBFLEXA
EVOLUTION, 66(11), 3336–3351.
author keywords: Complex phenotypes; ecological genetics; ecologically adaptive traits; herbivore host range; plant-insect interactions
MeSH headings : Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis; Animals; Chromosome Mapping; Feeding Behavior; Female; Food Chain; Genetic Linkage; Genetic Markers; Hybridization, Genetic; Larva / genetics; Larva / physiology; Male; Moths / genetics; Moths / physiology; Phenotype; Physalis; Quantitative Trait, Heritable
TL;DR:
It is hypothesized that behavioral changes may have paved the way for physiological adaptation to Physalis by the generalist ancestor of H. subflexa and H. virescens, and different chromosomes could produce similar phenotypes, suggesting that the same trait might be controlled by different chromosomes in different backcross populations.

MeSH headings : ADAM Proteins / genetics; ADAM Proteins / metabolism; ADAM17 Protein; Animals; Carcinoma, Pancreatic Ductal / genetics; Carcinoma, Pancreatic Ductal / metabolism; Carcinoma, Pancreatic Ductal / pathology; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Transformation, Neoplastic; Epithelial Cells; ErbB Receptors / biosynthesis; ErbB Receptors / genetics; ErbB Receptors / metabolism; Extracellular Signal-Regulated MAP Kinases / metabolism; Genes, ras; Humans; Mice; Mice, Transgenic; Pancreas / metabolism; Pancreas / pathology; Pancreatic Neoplasms / genetics; Pancreatic Neoplasms / metabolism; Pancreatic Neoplasms / pathology; Proto-Oncogene Proteins p21(ras) / biosynthesis; Proto-Oncogene Proteins p21(ras) / genetics; Proto-Oncogene Proteins p21(ras) / metabolism
TL;DR:
It is shown that oncogenic KRAS upregulates endogenous EGFR expression and activation, the latter being dependent on the EGFR ligand sheddase, ADAM17, which effectively eliminates KRAS-driven tumorigenesis in vivo.

Classical Genetics Meets Next-Generation Sequencing: Uncovering a Genome-Wide Recombination Drosophila melanogaster
Singh, N. D. (2012, October). PLOS GENETICS, Vol. 8.
MeSH headings : Animals; Chromosome Mapping; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Genome; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; Recombination, Genetic
TL;DR:
The power of classical genetics with next-generation sequencing is combined to provide for the first time a high-resolution recombination map of the D. melanogaster genome, showing that although crossover and nonc crossover rates are both significantly variable genome-wide, rates of crossing-over are ten times more variable than noncrossover rates.

Ed(s): C. Moreau
MeSH headings : Archaea / genetics; Bacteria / genetics; Humans; Molecular Typing; Phylogeny; RNA, Archaeal / genetics; RNA, Bacterial / genetics; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Umbilicus / microbiology
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that “oligarchs” dominate diverse assemblages appears to be supported by human-associated bacteria, as shown in the analysis of bacteria and arachaea from the belly buttons of humans sampled within a nation-wide citizen science project.

Variation in gene transcript profiles of two V1a-type arginine vasotocin receptors among sexual phases of bluehead wrasse (Thalassoma bifasciatum)
GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 179(3), 451–464.
author keywords: Receptor; Sex change; Neuropeptide; Arginine vasopressin; Fish; Gonad; Hypothalamus
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Male; Perciformes / genetics; Receptors, Vasopressin / genetics; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction
TL;DR:
Evidence is provided that V1a-type AVT receptor transcript abundance in the hypothalamus and gonads of bluehead wrasse varies in patterns linked to sexual phase, and bestow a foundation for future studies investigating how differential expression of v1a1 and v1A2 teleost AVT receptors links to behavioral status and gonadal function in fish more broadly.

Environ. Entomol, 41(4), 761–767.
author keywords: Oulema melanopus; integrated pest management; degree-days; predictive model; sampling
TL;DR:
There was a significant positive linear relationship between egg peak density and larval peak density, explaining 94% of the variation seen in larval peaks, indicating that egg peaks could reliably predict larval infestation levels.

Mapping Six New Susceptibility to Colon Cancer (Scc) Loci Using a Mouse Interspecific Backcross
G3-GENES GENOMES GENETICS, 2(12), 1577–1584.
author keywords: spretus; cancer modifier; colorectal cancer
MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Chromosome Mapping; Chromosomes / genetics; Colonic Neoplasms / genetics; Colonic Neoplasms / metabolism; Crosses, Genetic; Genetic Predisposition to Disease; Genome; Genotype; Mice; Phenotype; Quantitative Trait Loci
TL;DR:
This work confirms genetic models suggesting that CRC is caused by many small effect alleles and brings the catalog of reported CRC modifier loci to 23 spread across 13 chromosomes, and provides the foundation for large population-level epistatic interaction tests to identify combinations of low effect allele that may have large effects on CRC susceptibility.

How complex do models need to be to predict dispersal of threatened species through matrix habitats?
Ecological Applications, 22(5), 1701–1710.
MeSH headings : Animals; Butterflies / physiology; Computer Simulation; Conservation of Energy Resources; Demography; Ecosystem; Endangered Species; Models, Biological; Movement; North Carolina
TL;DR:
Although the gain in predicting dispersal with increasing model complexity was small, so was the increase in financial cost, and more complex models made substantially different predictions than simple models when applied to a novel landscape in which butterflies are to be reintroduced to bolster their populations, these results caution against a pure parsimony approach.

author keywords: host selection; performance; potato tuber moth; tobacco splitworm; spatial heterogeneity; Solanaceae; Lepidoptera; Gelechiidae
TL;DR:
Phthorimaea operculella larvae appear to utilize suboptimal N. tabacum host tissue to maximize their chances of survival, and are able to move within and between plants.
