Sexual dimorphism is one of the most prevalent, and often the most extreme, examples of
phenotypic variation within species, and arises primarily from genomic variation that is …

The chicken continues to hold its position as a leading model organism within many areas of
research, as well as being a major source of protein for human consumption. The First …

Variation in gene expression across lineages is thought to explain much of the observed
phenotypic variation and adaptation. The protein is closer to the target of natural selection …

In both statistical genetics and phylogenetics, a major goal is to identify correlations between
genetic loci or other aspects of the phenotype or environment and a focal trait. In these 2 …

Despite the increasing abundance of whole transcriptome data, few methods are available
to analyze global gene expression across phylogenies. Here, we present a new software …

Chemosensory tissues exhibit significant between-species variability, yet the evolution of
gene expression and cell types underlying this diversity remain poorly understood. To …

Gene expression differences between males and females are thought to be key for the
evolution of sexual dimorphism, and sex-biased genes are often used to study the molecular …

Structural and physiological changes in the female reproductive system underlie the origins
of pregnancy in multiple vertebrate lineages. In mammals, the glandular portion of the lower …

Gene expression has a key role in reproductive isolation, and studies of hybrid gene
expression have identified mechanisms causing hybrid sterility. Here, we review the …

Flowering plants show significant diversity in sexual strategies, profoundly impacting the
evolution of sexual traits and associated genes. Sexual selection is one of the primary …
