Adaptive evolution and co-evolution of chloroplast genomes in Pteridaceae species occupying different habitats: overlap** residues are always highly mutated
BackgroundThe evolution of protein residues depends on the mutation rates of their encoding nucleotides, but it may also be affected by co-evolution...
-
Co‐evolution of early Earth environments and microbial life
Two records of Earth history capture the evolution of life and its co-evolving ecosystems with interpretable fidelity: the geobiological and...

Evolution and co-evolution: insights into the divergence of plant heat shock factor genes
The Heat Shock Factor (Hsf) genes are widely distributed across the plant kingdom regulating the plant response to various abiotic stresses. In...

Co-evolution of immunity and seasonal influenza viruses
Seasonal influenza viruses cause recurring global epidemics by continually evolving to escape host immunity. The viral constraints and host immune...

Elucidation of genes enhancing natural product biosynthesis through co-evolution analysis
Streptomyces has the largest repertoire of natural product biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), yet develo** a universal engineering strategy for...

Identification of traits to improve co-assimilation of glucose and xylose by adaptive evolution of Spathaspora passalidarum and Scheffersomyces stipitis yeasts
AbstractLignocellulosic biomass is a renewable raw material for producing several high-value-added chemicals and fuels. In general, xylose and...

Recent co-evolution of two pandemic plant diseases in a multi-hybrid swarm
Most plant pathogens exhibit host specificity but when former barriers to infection break down, new diseases can rapidly emerge. For a number of...

Global genomic and proteomic analysis indicates co-evolution of Neisseria species and with their human host
Neisseria , a genus from the beta-proteobacteria class, is of potential clinical importance. This genus contains both pathogenic and commensal...

Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co-option in the evolution of the hair follicle
BLAST searches against the human genome showed that of the 93 keratin-associated proteins (KRTAPs) of Homo sapiens , 53 can be linked by sequence...

Plant Pathogen Co-evolution in Rice Crop
The simultaneous genetic change in interacting species as a result of mutually imposed natural selection is known as co-evolution. Many biologists...

Seasonality and Strain Specificity Drive Rapid Co-evolution in an Ostreococcus-Virus System from the Western Baltic Sea
Marine viruses are a major driver of phytoplankton mortality and thereby influence biogeochemical cycling of carbon and other nutrients....

Heavy Metals as Catalysts in the Evolution of Antimicrobial Resistance and the Mechanisms Underpinning Co-selection
The menace caused by antibiotic resistance in bacteria is acknowledged on a global scale. Concerns over the same are increasing because of the...

Conifer and broadleaf trees show a strong co-evolution with rhizosphere diazotrophic microbiome
Background and AimsFree living, non-symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria (diazotrophs) that inhabit plant rhizosphere substantially contribute to...

Mining salt stress-related genes in Spartina alterniflora via analyzing co-evolution signal across 365 plant species using phylogenetic profiling
With the increasing number of sequenced species, phylogenetic profiling (PP) has become a powerful method to predict functional genes based on...
-
Co-evolution of interacting proteins through non-contacting and non-specific mutations
Proteins often accumulate neutral mutations that do not affect current functions but can profoundly influence future mutational possibilities and...

Host-specific co-evolution likely driven by diet in Buchnera aphidicola
BackgroundRussian wheat aphid ( Diuraphis noxia Kurd.) is a severe pest to wheat, and even though resistance varieties are available to curb this...

Evolution of Life Cycles of Nematodes Parasitizing Woody Plants As a Result of Ecological and Phylogenetic Co-Adaptations with Hosts and Vectors
AbstractFundamental aspects in the evolution of nematodes parasitizing woody plants are reviewed. (1) Nematode faunal lists of natural refugia are...
