There is abundant variation in gene expression between individuals, populations, and
species. The evolution of gene regulation and expression within and between species is …

Understanding the genetic architecture of speciation is a major goal in evolutionary biology.
Hybrid dysfunction is thought to arise most commonly through negative interactions between …

Precise patterns of synaptic connections between neurons are encoded in their genetic
programs. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing to profile neuronal transcriptomes at …

Little is known of how gene expression and its plasticity evolves as populations adapt to
different environmental regimes. Expression is expected to evolve adaptively in all …

Changes in gene expression are thought to play a major role in adaptive evolution. While it
is known that gene expression is highly sensitive to the environment, very few studies have …

Drosophila melanogaster has one of the best characterized antiviral immune responses
among invertebrates. However, relatively few easily transmitted natural virus isolates are …

Fruits, vegetables, and spices are natural sources of bioactive phytochemicals, such as
polyphenols, carotenoids, flavonoids, curcuminoids, terpenoids, and capsaicinoids …

Background Allele-specific expression (ASE) refers to the preferential expression of one
allele over the other and contributes to adaptive phenotypic plasticity. Here, we used a …

Revealing the mechanisms underlying the breathtaking morphological diversity observed in
nature is a major challenge in Biology. It has been established that recurrent mutations in …

Interspecific hybrids have played a key role in research on gene expression regulation. A
growing number of studies have measured genome-wide allele-specific expression in …
