Evolution in parallel: new insights from a classic system.
Neo-darwinists have long argued that parallel evolution, the repeated evolution of similar phenotypes in closely related lineages, is caused by the action of similar environments on alleles at many loci of small effect. A more controversial possibility is that the genetic architecture of traits initiates parallelism, sometimes through fixation of alleles of large effect. Recent research (by Col...
متن کاملCytokinins. New insights into a classic phytohormone.
Cytokinins were discovered in the search for factors that promoted division of plant cells in culture. Naturally occurring cytokinins are N-substituted adenine derivatives that generally contain an isoprenoid derivative side chain. These hormones influence numerous aspects of plant development and physiology, including seed germination, de-etiolation, chloroplast differentiation, apical dominan...
متن کاملCancer metabolism: New insights into classic characteristics
Initial studies of cancer metabolism in the early 1920s found that cancer cells were phenotypically characterized by aerobic glycolysis, in that these cells favor glucose uptake and lactate production, even in the presence of oxygen. This property, called the Warburg effect, is considered a hallmark of cancer. The mechanism by which these cells acquire aerobic glycolysis has been uncovered. Aci...

متن کاملRevisiting Classic Energy Models for Evolutionary System Insights
This paper reports the results of a comparison of quantitative and qualitative approaches to systems analysis. The primary goal of the investigation was to test a heuristic for qualitative analysis previously proposed by the author that is intended to improve recognition of potential sources of failure for models used for forecasting. A series of papers published by John Sterman, George Richard...
