Behavioural patterns among female gorillas indicate that animals guide their aggressive interactions towards more or less powerful groupmates depending on the conditions they experience.

Wide-gauge posture in the limb skeleton of Titanosauriformes is an exaptation to gigantism, as it is not correlated with body size in deeply branching titanosaurs.

Studying the growth of bacteria without cell walls in an artificial environment can shed new light on the proliferation of primitive life-forms billions of years ago.

The combination of histological and microscopic techniques, along with the initial application of finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) modeling to a fossil feather, has resulted in the first recovery of specific iridescent color patterns.

Strong selection by aphids only weakly affects epigenetic and phenotypic variation within three Arabidopsis thaliana accessions, demonstrating limited potential for adaptation by epigenetic differentiation within genotypes in this model species.

The rapid development of pesticide resistance in a mite across wide geographical areas is linked to the independent and repeated emergence of multiple mutations in target genes.
