摘要:The biological mechanisms that underpin primate social evolution remain poorly understood. Asian colobines display a range of social organizations, which makes them good models for investigating social evolution. By integrating ecological, geological, fossil, behavioral, and genomic analyses, we found that colobine primates that inhabit colder environments tend to live in larger, more complex groups. Specifically, glacial periods during the past 6 million years promoted the selection of genes ...

摘要:Hybridization is widely recognized as promoting both species and phenotypic diversity. However, its role in mammalian evolution is rarely examined. We report historical hybridization among a group of snub-nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus) that resulted in the origin of a hybrid species. The geographically isolated gray snub-nosed monkey Rhinopithecus brelichi shows a stable mixed genomic ancestry derived from the golden snub-nosed monkey (Rhinopithecus roxellana) and the ancestor of black-white (R...

摘要:Incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) causes the phylogeny of some parts of the genome to differ from the species tree. In this work, we investigate the frequencies and determinants of ILS in 29 major ancestral nodes across the entire primate phylogeny. We find up to 64% of the genome affected by ILS at individual nodes. We exploit ILS to reconstruct speciation times and ancestral population sizes. Estimated speciation times are much more recent than genomic divergence times and are in good agreeme...

摘要:Steed et al. (1) illustrates the crucial impact that the quality of official statistical data products may exert on the accuracy, stability, and equity of policy decisions on which they are based. The authors remind us that data, however responsibly curated, can be fallible. With this comment, we underscore the importance of conducting principled quality assessment of official statistical data products. We observe that the quality assessment procedure employed by Steed et al. needs improvement...

摘要:Aptameric receptors are important biosensor components, yet our ability to identify them depends on the target structures. We analyzed the contributions of individual functional groups on small molecules to binding within 27 target-aptamer pairs, identifying potential hindrances to receptor isolation-for example, negative cooperativity between sterically hindered functional groups. To increase the probability of aptamer isolation for important targets, such as leucine and voriconazole, for whi...
