    Synaptic Competition in Structural Plasticity and Cognitive Function
    Yazmin Ramiro-Cortes,Anna F. Hobbiss,Inbal Israely
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2013）SCI 2区
    Connections between neurons can undergo long-lasting changes in synaptic strength correlating with changes in structure. These events require the synthesis of new proteins, the availability of which can lead to cooperative and competitive interactions between synapses for the exp...

    Beyond Existence and Aiming Outside the Laboratory: Estimating Frequency-Dependent and Pay-off-biased Social Learning Strategies
    Richard McElreath,Adrian V. Bell,Charles Efferson,Mark Lubell,Peter J. Richerson,Timothy Waring
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2008）SCI 2区
    The existence of social learning has been confirmed in diverse taxa, from apes to guppies. In order to advance our understanding of the consequences of social transmission and evolution of behaviour, however, we require statistical tools that can distinguish among diverse social ...

    Powerhouses in the Cold: Mitochondrial Function During Thermal Acclimation in Montane Mayflies
    Justin C. Havird,Alisha A. Shah,Adam J. Chicco
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2019）SCI 2区
    Mitochondria provide the vast majority of cellular energy available to eukaryotes. Therefore, adjustments in mitochondrial function through genetic changes in mitochondrial or nuclear-encoded genes might underlie environmental adaptation. Environmentally induced plasticity in mit...

    Hidden Diversity of Double-Stranded DNA Phages in Symbiotic Rhizobium Species
    Rosa Santamaria,Patricia Bustos,Jannick Van Cauwenberghe,Victor Gonzalez
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2021）SCI 2区
    In this study, we addressed the extent of diversification of phages associated with nitrogen-fixing symbiotic Rhizobium species. Despite the ecological and economic importance of the Rhizobium genus, little is known about the diversity of the associated phages. A thorough assessm...

    Avian Egg and Nestling Detection in the Wild: Should We Rely on Visual Models or Behavioural Experiments
    Jesus M. Aviles
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2020）SCI 2区
    The fields of avian egg and nestling colour detection have rapidly advanced owing to the application of visual models, which have allowed assessing of evolutionary questions considering receiver perception. Here, I first review the literature aiming to identify patterns of avian ...

    Fire in the Mind: Changing Understandings of Fire in Western Civilization
    Stephen J. Pyne
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2016）SCI 2区
    For most of human history, fire has been a pervasive presence in human life, and so also in human thought. This essay examines the ways in which fire has functioned intellectually in Western civilization as mythology, as religion, as natural philosophy and as modern science. The ...

    The Annual Cycles of Phytoplankton Biomass
    Monika Winder,James E. Cloern
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2010）SCI 2区
    Terrestrial plants are powerful climate sentinels because their annual cycles of growth, reproduction and senescence are finely tuned to the annual climate cycle having a period of one year. Consistency in the seasonal phasing of terrestrial plant activity provides a relatively l...

    Coevolution of Cognitive Abilities and Identity Signals in Individual Recognition Systems
    Sara E. Miller,Michael J. Sheehan,H. Kern Reeve
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2020）SCI 2区
    Social interactions are mediated by recognition systems, meaning that the cognitive abilities or phenotypic diversity that facilitate recognition may be common targets of social selection. Recognition occurs when a receiver compares the phenotypes produced by a sender with a temp...

    Notes on the Birth–death Prior with Fossil Calibrations for Bayesian Estimation of Species Divergence Times
    Mario dos Reis
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2016）SCI 2区
    Constructing a multi-dimensional prior on the times of divergence (the node ages) of species in a phylogeny is not a trivial task, in particular, if the prior density is the result of combining different sources of information such as a speciation process with fossil calibration ...

    Natural Variation in Male-Induced 'Cost-of-mating' and Allele-Specific Association with Male Reproductive Genes in Drosophila Melanogaster
    AC Fiumera,BL Dumont,AG Clark
    PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS of the ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES（2006）SCI 2区
    One of the most sharply defined sexual conflicts arises when the act of mating is accompanied by an inflated risk of death. Several reports have documented an increased death rate of female Drosophila as a result of recurrent mating. Transgenic and mutation experiments have furth...
