RDA coupled with deep sequencing detects somatic SVA-retrotranspositions and mosaicism in the human brain by Jonas Möhner, Maurice Scheuren, Valentina Woronzow, Sven Schumann, Hans Zischler

“…Our results largely recapitulated the generally accepted evo-devo patterns and revealed chromosome-wide rates of de novo SVA reintegration targets and preferences for specific genomic regions, e.g., GC- and TE-rich regions as well as close proximity to genes that tend to fall into neural-specific Gene Ontology pathways. …”

A Dissenters’ View on AppleSnail Immunobiology by Cristian Rodriguez, Cristian Rodriguez, Cristian Rodriguez, Israel A. Vega, Israel A. Vega, Israel A. Vega, Alfredo Castro-Vazquez, Alfredo Castro-Vazquez, Alfredo Castro-Vazquez

“…Our trip went through more than two centuries of history and was guided by an evo-devo hypothesis: that the gastropod immune system originally developed in the mesenchymal connective tissue of the reno-pericardial complex, and that in that tissue some cells differentiated into hematopoietically committed progenitor cells that integrate constitutive hemocyte aggregations in the reno-pericardial territory, whether concentrated in the pericardium or the kidney in a species-specific manner. …”

La filosofía de Peirce y su aplicación al problema del origen de las innovaciones evolutivas by Eugenio Andrade

“…En la última década las teorías epigenéticas de la evolución (biología evolutiva del desarrollo –EvoDevo- y la teoría de sistemas en desarrollo –TSD-) han planteado que la variación evolutiva depende de la plasticidad genotípica y fenotípica que posibilita al organismo responder a las condiciones del medio ambiente mediante ajustes fenotípicos a diferentes niveles (metabólico, fisiológico, ontogenético, conductual). …”
