The mutational flexibility of the antimalarial target dihydroorotate dehydrogenase thwarts the use of collateral sensitivity as a strategy to suppress the evolution of resistance.

A synthetic, prospective article considers how the fields of sensory ecology and collective behaviour can combine when considering animal collective movements and interactions, and how these fields can inspire each other to advance understanding of animal behaviour, adaptation and evolution.

Metabolomic analysis shows how genome-wide changes in gene expression propagate to and affect the metabolomes of an organism during adaptation.

The first comprehensive study on the regulation mechanism of miR-252 and temperature receptor CcTRPM on insect seasonal polyphenism will also conducive to designing a new method for pest control.

Juvenile and adult metabolism are constrained from evolving independently from each other even in a species that lacks developmental continuity between juvenile and adult organs.

A complex colour polymorphism which links colour with behavioural and life-history traits is associated with a single gene duplication in male wood tiger moths.

A new computational tool provides insights into the structure of the cerebellum in mammals.

A toxin-antidote element, identified for its role as a selfish genetic element that spreads through a population by killing certain offspring, also plays a beneficial role to the host.

Pleiotropy of adaptive clones isolated from diverse experimental environment.
