  1. Combinations of Spok genes create multiple meiotic drivers in Podospora
    pollen

    To clarify, pollen is not a sexual cell per se. Instead, it contains two sperm cells that are the male sexual cells in plants.

    Thank you to the reader who alerted us to this mistake, and apologies for any confusion caused.

  4. The dark side of oxytocin
    But Zhang et al. now show that the ‘love hormone’ also helps individuals launch more coordinated ‘attacks’ on out-groups

    The third paragraph of this digest has been updated to clarify that the contest was economic in nature.

  5. Scientific Publishing: Recognizing the importance of new tools and resources for research
    We hope that this new article type proves to be an effective venue to celebrate these critical contributions to science.

    eLife accepts articles in a range of formats. Some more details are in this blogpost: https://elifesciences.org/inside-elife/a93dd9bc/elife-latest-publish-in-a-format-that-fits

  6. Scientific Publishing: Recognizing the importance of new tools and resources for research
    As these examples illustrate, we welcome the submission of significant technological or methodological advances, including genomic or other datasets (such as brain atlases), collections of biological resources, software tools, and so on, especially when linked to examples that demonstrate their broad utility

    Other examples of Tools and Resources articles can be read here: https://elifesciences.org/articles/tools-resources

  7. Authors can now submit a preprint to bioRxiv while submitting to eLife
    Nevertheless, we hope this will encourage more authors to consider posting preprints for their work.

    In this 2017 Editorial, Deputy Editor Eve Marder explained some of the reasons we encourage authors submitting to eLife to also upload their manuscript to a preprint server at the same time: https://elifesciences.org/articles/30076

  8. Plain-language Summaries: Results of the 2016 eLife digest reader survey
    We also share a selection of digests on our blogs on the social publishing platform, Medium

    Digests on Medium can be read here.

    Since mid-October 2018, the latest eLife digests have also appeared in their own dedicated section of the eLife website. More details here.

  9. Characterization of small fiber pathology in a mouse model of Fabry disease
    i.pl. capsaicin

    If, like me, you were curious what the abbreviation "i.pl." means, it's short for "intraplantar" or "within the sole of the foot".

  10. The Natural History of Model Organisms: From molecular manipulation of domesticated Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to survival in nature
    C. reinhardtii ingested by the predatory protist Peranema trichophorum.

    Following publication, the authors noticed a small typo in Figure 3. The label above the scale bar should read "10 μm" (i.e. 10 micrometers). We apologise for any confusion.
