PLEIOTROPY CONSTRAINS THE EVOLUTION OF PROTEIN BUT NOT REGULATORY SEQUENCES IN A TRANSCRIPTION REGULATORY NETWORK INFLUENCING COMPLEX SOCIAL BEHAVIOURS

Pleiotropy constrains the evolution of protein but not regulatory sequences in a transcription regulatory network influencing complex social behaviours

It is increasingly apparent that genes and networks that influence complex behaviour are evolutionary conserved, which is paradoxical considering that behaviour is labile over evolutionary timescales.How does adaptive change in behaviour arise if behaviour Valve is controlled by conserved, pleiotropic, and likely evolutionary constrained genes? Ple

From macro-level policies to microlevel practices

In recent decades, gated communities for affluent groups have gained academic attention worldwide.However, in nations with large inequalities such as Mexico, which are also affected by issues of insecurity, corruption, and violence, these enclaves have become more common for middle-income groups.Their existence is usually associated with the search

Analyzing the effects of natural ventilation caused by excavating the waste pass on the ventilation network of Anguran mine

One of the operating costs of exploiting underground mines is related to ventilation operations.The development of the underground network during the mine life and new excavations will cause a redesign of the ventilation plan over and over again.Excavating the waste pass in the Anguran underground lead and zinc mine and developing new access for th

Effect of cover crops residues on crambe cultivation

Although the crambe is commercially exploited in Brazil, there is a demand for studies that allow the improvement of the techniques involved in its cultivation.Planting on residues of different species can provide greater vegetative and reproductive development.Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the vegetative and reproductive develop
