We suggest that a combination of traditional and machine learning methods make measuring selection on the transcriptome an achievable task-- even in the field, at manageable sample sizes.

Predicting Fitness-Related Traits Using Gene Expression and Machine Learning
Abstract. Evolution by natural selection occurs at its most basic through the change in frequencies of alleles; connecting those genomic targets to phenoty

Sí, los famosos "Monsanto papers". En retrospectiva, creo que debimos darle algo de crédito a la IARC por levantar la alerta primero, aunque ahora sabemos que mucho de lo efectos se asocian a los coadyuvantes de ciertas formulaciones.

Hace rato que se pone bajo cuestión la existencia de una barrera energética como motor de la eucariogénesis.

And while I'm at it, just because a genomic loci is transcribed, it does not follow that it is a gene! (yes, I'm looking at you lncRNA people!)
THANK YOU.
