   Cryptovaranoides is not a squamate

   Michael W Caldwell, Chase D Brownstein ... Tiago R Simões

   Claims for a Triassic-aged crown lizard merit detailed reanalysis, the results of which find that Cryptovaranoides is not only not a lizard, but is a more distantly related diapsid reptile.

   G-protein-coupled receptor diversity and evolution in the closest living relatives of metazoa

   Alain Garcia De Las Bayonas, Nicole King

   Up-to-date computational pipeline characterizes G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) repertoires in the closest relatives of metazoans, providing a framework to investigate the evolutionary origins and ancestral functions of key metazoan signaling pathways.

    Lifestyles shape genome size and gene content in fungal pathogens

    Anna Fijarczyk, Pauline Hessenauer ... Christian R Landry

    A genomic analysis shows that the evolution of genome size and gene content among fungal pathogens in the class Sordariomycetes varies depending on their interactions with hosts and vectors.
