Non-Mendelian Genetics: Finding of Transposable Elements in Corns and Flies
The essence of Mendelian genetics is the rule of chromosome segregation and the independent assortment of different chromosomes. However, genes on... -
Induced Mutagenesis for Crop Improvement
Induced mutagenesis is one of the most powerful strategies for creating genetic diversity and identifying critical regulatory genes for economically... -
A general mathematical model for coevolutionary dynamics of mutualisms with partner discrimination
Mutualisms (reciprocally beneficial heterospecific interactions) are thought as susceptible to exploitation by “cheaters” receiving benefits from...
