wtf genes, a poison-antidote meiotic driver, underwent recurrent and intricate recombination, which likely generates new meiotic drivers.

In Neotropical birds, eggshells show that water vapor conductance declines with elevation, but structural responses vary across species, suggesting no single underlying mechanism and highlighting the need to further evaluate eggshell traits as determinants of elevational limits.

Allocating space, materials and energy to an eye's optics and photoreceptor array is a major factor in eye design that explains obvious differences between simple eyes and compound eyes.

Deep learning applied to B cell phylogenies reveals a simple, measurable curve relating receptor affinity to evolutionary fitness in germinal centers.

A new biologically-informed training paradigm enables protein language models to predict affinity maturation trajectories for antibodies.
