Abstract:: Animal weapons are thought to have evolved to compete for reproductive opportunities within a species. Across the diverse weapon-bearing taxa, several evolutionary trends have emerged: (1) increasing complexity and relative size across ontogeny, (2) sexual dimorphism, and (3) higher levels of random deviations from symmetry (i.e., fluctuating asymmetry) than non-weaponized...

Abstract:: The loss of all deuterium labels from previous feedings of [2-²H]-, [3,3-²H₂]-, and [2,3,3-²H₃]arginines had indicated the possible intermediacy of β-hydroxy- and β-ketoarginine (30 and 31, respectively) in the biosynthesis of the streptolidine portion of streptothricin F (la). In order to confirm or refute this evidence, D,L-[2,3,3,5,5-²H₅]- arginine (32) was...
