Temporally Dissociated, Trait-Specific Modifications Underlie Phenotypic Polyphenism in Spea multiplicata Tadpoles, Which Suggests Modularity by Brian L. Storz, Joseph Travis

“…Shared control suggests that the various responses evolved in unison, but independent control suggests independent evolution of many components. Spadefoot toads have evolved adaptive polyphenism to cope with developing in rapidly drying ephemeral ponds. …”

A new, fast method to search for morphological convergence with shape data. by Silvia Castiglione, Carmela Serio, Davide Tamagnini, Marina Melchionna, Alessandro Mondanaro, Mirko Di Febbraro, Antonio Profico, Paolo Piras, Filippo Barattolo, Pasquale Raia

“…Currently available methods to explore evolutionary convergence either: rely on the analysis of the phenotypic resemblance between sister clades as compared to their ancestor, fit different evolutionary regimes to different parts of the tree to see whether the same regime explains phenotypic evolution in phylogenetically distant clades, or assess deviations from the congruence between phylogenetic and phenotypic distances. …”

Engineering Xylose Isomerase and Reductase Pathways in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Lipid Production by Isabel De La Torre, Miguel G. Acedos, Juan J. Cestero, Jorge Barriuso, José L. García

“…We have compared the metabolic efficiency of two xylose metabolic pathways by developing three recombinant Y. lipolytica strains: one harbouring a xylose reductase pathway, one with a xylose isomerase pathway, and one combining both pathways, and the strains were tested for xylose consumption and lipid production at different scales. The recombinant strain with the reductase pathway that was directly isolated in selective xylose medium showed the highest lipid yield, producing up to 12.8 g/L of lipids, or 43% of the biomass dry weight, without requiring any other xylose consumption adaptive evolution process. …”
