or head growth may be increased in individual snakes to meet local demands (adaptive developmental plasticity) 1. Here we test the relative contributions of genetics and environment to the jaw ...

CO2 uptake and water loss. Our goal is to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying the stomatal developmental plasticity in seed plants.

More than half of the mammalian genome consists of remnants of ancient viral DNA known as ‘transposable elements’ ─ sequences ...

Over half of our genomes consists of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable elements, which are widespread across the tree of life. Once dismissed as the "dark side" of the ...
