Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we mapped thousands of expression quantitative trait loci in yeast, including a variant in GPA1 that influences gene expression, cell-cycle occupancy, and mating efficiency.
Transmissible tumors in Hydra can manipulate host phenotype by inducing the growth of supernumerary tentacles, enhancing host foraging efficiency and promoting tumor vertical transmission, akin to manipulative parasites.
Dynamic fluid-structure coupling method simulated the feeding and respiration patterns of Quadrapyrgites, revealing the relationship between the ancient medusozoans and modern jellyfish.
