ROMANTIC HUMAN STUDY: PECULIARITIES OF PERSONALITY PHILOSOPHY IN THE LITERATURE OF THE 1820-1830-IES. by T. N. Zhuzhgina-Allahverdian, S. A. Ostapenko

“…The man is a central figure of the Romantic literary, therefore it makes sense to single out romantic human anthropological doctrine and the image of man associated with a specific historical and cultural era called the "epoch of romanticism"; to show that many romantic philosophical positions remained relevant to the basic foundations of contemporary anthropological research and coincide with it in analytical and critical thinking about a man, a person, his historical and evolutionary fate. Originality. The romantic worldview determined the specifics of anthropological discourse, both logical and illogical, remaining symbols and attaching, as for example, a real historical anecdote, a popular history, a philosophical thought, a myth, a famous literary episode and the arts multiplied by creative inspiration and imagination. …”

Spatial Patterns of Taxonomic, Functional, and Phylogenetic Diversity of Mammals in Southern Mexico by Cintia Natalia Martín‐Regalado, Mario C. Lavariega, Miguel Briones‐Salas

“…Taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic measurements of diversity are now recognized as comprehensive methods for understanding the relationships among species diversity, associated ecological processes, and the evolutionary history of species within communities. However, spatial incongruence among these different dimensions of diversity has been found to be common at global and regional levels, posing challenges for conservation. …”

Extensive Admixture Among Karst‐Obligate Salamanders Reveals Evidence of Recent Divergence and Gene Exchange Through Aquifers by Chris C. Nice, Katherine L. Bell, Zachariah Gompert, Lauren K. Lucas, James R. Ott, Ruben U. Tovar, Paul Crump, Peter H. Diaz

“…ABSTRACT Karst ecosystems often contain extraordinary biodiversity, but the complex underground aquifers of karst regions present challenges for assessing and conserving stygobiont diversity and investigating their evolutionary history. We examined the karst‐obligate salamanders of the Eurycea neotenes species complex in the Edwards Plateau region of central Texas using population genomics data to address questions about population connectivity and the potential for gene exchange within the underlying aquifer system. …”

Reduction in thermal plasticity of life history traits in response to cold selection: an experimental evolution study using Drosophila melanogaster by Rishav Roy, Rishav Roy, Aradhya Chattopadhyay, Sreebes Deb Sharma, Aharna Mondal, Payel Biswas, Payel Biswas, Shampa M. Ghosh

“…IntroductionHow selection influences phenotypic plasticity is an important question in evolutionary biology. We report an experimental evolution study that examined how prolonged selection at cold vs. warm temperature impacts the thermal plasticity of traits like reproductive output, body size, and body water content in Drosophila melanogaster.MethodsWe conducted the study on two sets of large, outbred fly populations: one maintained at the standard fly rearing temperature, i.e., 25°C, and another selected at cold temperature, i.e., 17°C, for 3.5 years. …”

The neuroendocrine stress-response in insects: the history of the development of the concept by M. A. Eremina, N. E. Gruntenko

“…The study of stress reaction in insects has both theoretical importance, as it demonstrates the convergence of evolutionary pathways of adaptive transformations in such distant taxa as insects and mammals, and practical importance, since the patterns of this reaction’s mechanisms can be used in modeling hereditary or acquired human diseases, in developing breeding methods for economically valuable insects and in finding ways to fight insect pests…”

The economic situation of state farms and collective farms Altai Territory in the second half of 1980s by D. S. Orlov, A. A. Chirkov

“…The pace of development of the agricultural sector of the Altai Territory in 1986–1989 was quite high compared with the three previous five-year plans and was second only to the economic results of the second half of the 1960s. The evolutionary nature of the development of agricultural production was determined by the traditional conservatism of the industry and was meaningfully connected with the political and economic features of the decisions of the March (1965) Plenum of the party and the Food Program of 1982. …”
