Behavioral Interactions between Parasites and Hosts: Host Suicide and the Evolution of Complex Life Cycles
(University of Chicago Press, 1980-07-01)The study of parasites and their hosts has typically focused on the physiological, morphological, and immunological adaptations to parasitism, adaptations which the parasite employs to survive and reproduce in the host and ... -
Challenges for Coring Deep Permafrost on Earth and Mars
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2008-08-04)A scientific drilling expedition to the High Lake region of Nunavut, Canada, was recently completed with the goals of collecting samples and delineating gradients in salinity, gas composition, pH, pe, and microbial abundance ... -

Evolution of the complementary sex-determination gene of honey bees: Balancing selection and trans-species polymorphisms
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2006-10-25)The mechanism of sex determination varies substantively among evolutionary lineages. One important mode of genetic sex determination is haplodiploidy, which is used by ∼20% of all animal species, including >200,000 species ... -
A Test of Baker’s Law: Breeding Systems and the Radiation of Tolpis (Asteraceae) in the Canary Islands
(University of Chicago Press, 2008-07-01)Baker’s law posits that self‐compatible (SC) plants will be more successful than self‐incompatible (SI) plants in long‐distance colonization because a single propagule can establish a viable population. Oceanic islands ... -
Biosystematic Analysis of the Cystopteris tennesseensis (Dryopteridaceae) Complex
(Missouri Botanical Society, 1990-01-01)The allotetraploid Cystopteris tennesseensis and its putative diploid progenitors, C. bulbifera and C. protrusa, constitute the C. tennesseensis complex. Although previous studies provided evidence of morphological, ... -

Phylogenetic Relationships of the Enigmatic Malesian Fern Thylacopteris (Polypodiaceae, Polypodiidae)
(University of Chicago Press, 2004-11-01)Thylacopteris is the sister to a diverse clade of polygrammoid ferns that occurs mainly in Southeast Asia and Malesia. The phylogenetic relationships are inferred from DNA sequences of three chloroplast genome regions ... -
Patterns of Genetic Variation in Southern Appalachian Populations of Athyrium filix‐femina var. asplenioides (Dryopteridaceae)
(University of Chicago Press, 2005-09-01)Allozyme variation (17 loci coding 11 enzymes) was investigated in 14 populations of the fern Athyrium filix‐femina var. asplenioides arrayed at differing elevations and latitudes in the southern Appalachians. Allozyme ... -
