Plant Cell Calcium-Rich Environment Enhances Thermostability of Recombinantly Produced alpha-Amylase From the Hyperthermophilic Bacterium Thermotoga maritime
BIOTECHNOLOGY AND BIOENGINEERING, 104(5), 947–956.
author keywords: hyperthermophilic enzymes; starch processing; transgenic plants; tobacco NT1 Cell cultures; biofuel
MeSH headings : Calcium / pharmacology; Coenzymes / pharmacology; Enzyme Stability; Escherichia coli / enzymology; Escherichia coli / genetics; Hot Temperature; Plants, Genetically Modified / enzymology; Recombinant Proteins / chemistry; Recombinant Proteins / genetics; Recombinant Proteins / metabolism; Thermotoga maritima / enzymology; Thermotoga maritima / genetics; Tobacco / enzymology; Tobacco / genetics; alpha-Amylases / chemistry; alpha-Amylases / genetics; alpha-Amylases / metabolism
TL;DR:
In a proof of concept study, tobacco cell cultures were used as model system to test in planta production of a hyperthermophilic α‐amylase from Thermotoga maritima, demonstrating the importance of a calcium‐rich environment for thermostability, as well as the advantage of producing this enzyme directly in plant cells where calcium is readily available.

Placental and Embryonic Growth Restriction in Mice With Reduced Function Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Alleles
GENETICS, 183(1), 207–218.
MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Animals, Newborn; Embryo, Mammalian; Female; Fetal Growth Retardation / genetics; Fetal Growth Retardation / mortality; Fetal Growth Retardation / pathology; Genes, erbB-1 / physiology; Homozygote; Mice; Mice, Inbred C3H; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Mice, Transgenic; Organ Size / genetics; Placenta / pathology; Placenta Diseases / genetics; Placenta Diseases / mortality; Placenta Diseases / pathology; Placentation; Pregnancy; Species Specificity

Effects of Corridors on Genetics of a Butterfly in a Landscape Experiment
SOUTHEASTERN NATURALIST, 8(4), 709–722.

Evolutionary Applications, 2(2), 143–159.
author keywords: assortative mating; fitness cost; genetic control; mosquito; release threshold
TL;DR:
It is found that models without age‐structure and mating details can substantially overestimate or underestimate the numbers of engineered insects that must be introduced into a wild population to achieve successful gene‐drive based on the Medea and engineered underdominance mechanisms.

GEOGRAPHIC AND TEMPORAL VARIATION IN MOTH CHEMICAL COMMUNICATION
[Review of ]. EVOLUTION, 63(8), 1987–2003.
author keywords: Experience; female sex pheromone; Heliothis subflexa; Heliothis virescens; male response; phenotypic plasticity; selection
MeSH headings : Animal Communication; Animals; Female; Male; Mexico; Moths / chemistry; Moths / metabolism; Sex Attractants / chemistry; Sex Attractants / metabolism; United States
TL;DR:
The pattern of temporal variation within populations suggests that optimization of the pheromonal signal also may be driven by within-generation physiological adjustments by the moths in response to their experience of the local chemical environment.

MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Bacillus thuringiensis Toxins; Bacterial Proteins / genetics; China; Endotoxins / genetics; Female; Hemolysin Proteins / genetics; Insecticide Resistance / genetics; Larva / physiology; Moths / genetics; Toxicity Tests
TL;DR:
The low frequency of resistance alleles found in this study and in the previous results from 2002 to 2005 suggest the frequency of Resistance alleles has remained low and that natural refugia resistance management strategy maybe effective for delaying resistance evolution in H. armigera to Bt cotton in northern China.

Estimates of natural selection due to protein tertiary structure inform the ancestry of biallelic loci
Gene, 441(1-2), 45–52.
MeSH headings : Evolution, Molecular; Gene Frequency; Humans; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Protein Structure, Tertiary; Proteins / genetics; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR:
This work focuses on 140 nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms of humans that are in proteins with known tertiary structures and finds that the technique for employing protein tertiary structure information yields some biologically plausible results but that it does not substantially improve the inference of ancestral human allele types.

Myrmecochory provides the best example to date for a consistent effect of any mutualism on large-scale diversification in angiosperm plants, and diversification rates were substantially higher in ant-dispersed plants than in their non-myRMecochorous relatives.
