Abstract | Full text | PDF

|
Editor’s summary
By reproducing clonally the asexual Amazon Molly fish accumulates deleterious mutations, known as Muller’s Ratchet, that threaten the species with extinction, but might be counteracted by having sex with males from sister species.

Abstract | Full text | PDF

|
Editor’s summary
Phylogenetic analysis of a single opsin gene in birds shows that their vision has shifted between the visible spectrum and UV-sensitive vision at least 14 times, each of which can be explained by a single nucleotide change.

Evolution of Escherichia coli rifampicin resistance in an antibiotic-free environment during thermal stress

|
Editor’s summary
E. coli can develop resistance to the antibiotic rifampicin, even in the absence of the drug, if grown in a thermally stressed environment, suggesting that antibiotic resistance is not always costly for bacteria to maintain.

Bad housekeeping: why do aphids leave their exuviae inside the colony?

Abstract | Full text | PDF

|
Editor’s summary
Predators are less likely to attack aphids if the exoskeletons discarded after molting, called exuviae, are still present, suggesting that exuviae serve as decoys and reinforce the protective effect of living in a group.
