Familiarity with a female does not affect a male's courtship intensity in garter snakes Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: Shine, Richard, Webb, Jonathan K., Lane, Amanda, and Mason, Robert T.
Abstract:: In many animal species, males direct more intense courtship towards females they have not previously encountered, than towards females with which they have previously mated. To test the factors responsible for this "Coolidge Effect", we need studies on a wide range of taxa – including those with mating systems in...

Plethodontid Salamander Distributions in Managed Forest Headwaters in Western Oregon, USA

Creator:: Olson, Deanna H. and Kluber, Matthew R.
Abstract:: We examined terrestrial amphibians in managed headwater forest stands in western Oregon from 1998 to 2009. We assessed: (1) temporal and spatial patterns of species capture rates, and movement patterns with distance from streams and forest management treatments of alternative riparian buffer widths and upland thinning; (2) species survival and...

Small RNA binding is a common strategy to suppress RNA silencing by several viral suppressors

Creator:: Lakatos, Lóránt, Csorba, Tibor, Pantaleo, Vitantonio, Chapman, Elisabeth J., Carrington, James C., Liu, Yu-Ping, Dolja, Valerian V., Calvino, Lourdes Fernández, López-Moya, Juan José, and Burgyán, József
Abstract:: RNA silencing is an evolutionarily conserved system that functions as an antiviral mechanism in higher plants and insects. To counteract RNA silencing, viruses express silencing suppressors that interfere with both siRNA- and microRNA-guided silencing pathways. We used comparative in vitro and in vivo approaches to analyse the molecular mechanism of...

Developmental rate: A unifying mechanism for sympatric divergence in postglacial fishes?

Creator:: Mcphee, Megan V., Noakes, David L. G., and Allendorf, Fred W.
Abstract:: Morphologically divergent ecotypes arise in fish populations on postglacial time scales, and resource polymorphisms are often invoked to explain their origin. However, genetic recombination can constrain the ability of divergent selection to produce reproductive isolation in sympatry. Recombination breaks up favorable combinations of traits (”adaptive suites”) if individual traits are...

Patterns of color phase indicate spawn timing at a Nassau grouper Epinephelus striatus spawning aggregation

Creator:: Archer, Stephanie K., Heppell, Scott A., Semmens, Brice X., Pattengill-Semmens, Christy V., Bush, Phillippe G., Mccoy, Croy M., and Johnson, Bradley C.
Abstract:: Nassau grouper Epinephelus striatus are a large bodied, top level predator that is ecologically important throughout the Caribbean. Although typically solitary, Nassau grouper form large annual spawning aggregations at predictable times in specific locations. In 2003, The Cayman Islands Marine Conservation Board established protection for a newly rediscovered Nassau grouper...

Creator:: Driggers, Camden M., Cooley, Richard B., Sankaran, Banumathi, Hirschberger, Lawrence L., Stipanuk, Martha H., and Karplus, P. Andrew
Abstract:: Mammalian cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear non-heme iron protein that catalyzes 2 the conversion of cysteine (Cys) to cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA) by an unclarified mechanism. 3 One structural study revealed a Cys-persulfenate (or Cys-persulfenic acid) formed in the active 4 site, but quantum mechanical calculations have been used...

Investigating Issues in the Laboratory: The Behavior of Red Swamp Crayfish as an Invasive Species

Creator:: Hewitt, Krissi M., Kayes, Lori J., Hubert, David, and Chouinard, Adam
Abstract:: Recent reform initiatives in undergraduate biology call for curricula that prepare students for dealing with real-world issues and making important links between science and society. In response to this call, we have developed an issues-based laboratory module that uses guided inquiry to integrate the concepts of animal behavior and population...

Exploring Phytoplankton Population Growth to Enhance Quantitative Literacy: Putting Vision & Change into Action

Creator:: Baumgartner, Erin, Biga, Lindsay, Bledsoe, Karen, Dawson, James, Grammer, Julie, Howard, Ava, and Snyder, Jeffrey
Abstract:: Quantitative literacy is essential to biological literacy (and is one of the core concepts in Vision and Change in Undergraduate Biology Education: A Call to Action; AAAS 2009). Building quantitative literacy is a challenging endeavor for biology instructors. Integrating mathematical skills into biological investigations can help build quantitative literacy. In...

Teaching Evolution & the Nature of Science

Creator:: Farber, Paul
Abstract:: The famous geneticist and co-founder of the modern theory of evolution, Theodosius Dobzhansky, published an article in this journal in 1973 with the title "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" (Dobzhansky, 1973). In that article he responded to religious attacks on the theory and defended...
