    • Characterizing the Infection-Induced Transcriptome of Nasonia vitripennis Reveals a Preponderance of Taxonomically-Restricted Immune Genes 

      Sackton, Timothy B.; Werren, John H.; Clark, Andrew G. (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      The innate immune system in insects consists of a conserved core signaling network and rapidly diversifying effector and recognition components, often containing a high proportion of taxonomically-restricted genes. In the ...

      Myriapods (e.g., centipedes and millipedes) display a simple homonomous body plan relative to other arthropods. All members of the class are terrestrial, but they attained terrestriality independently of insects. Myriapoda ...

    • Quantifying Clonal and Subclonal Passenger Mutations in Cancer Evolution 

      Bozic, Ivana; Gerold, Jeffrey M.; Nowak, Martin A. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      The vast majority of mutations in the exome of cancer cells are passengers, which do not affect the reproductive rate of the cell. Passengers can provide important information about the evolutionary history of an individual ...
