Short distances dominate connectivity patterns of coral communities in the North-West Arabian Sea by Michel R. Claereboudt, Gerd Bruss

“…At longer time scales, larval connectivity controls the distribution and, ultimately, the biogeography of species. We used a Lagrangian stochastic model to simulate the transport routes of coral larvae released from the major reef communities of the Arabian Sea and Gulf of Oman. …”

Genomic patterns of strain-specific genetic structure, linkage, and selection across fall armyworm populations by Ashley E. Tessnow, Rodney N. Nagoshi, Robert L. Meagher, Todd M. Gilligan, Ben M. Sadd, Yves Carrière, Holly N. Davis, Shelby J. Fleischer, Kelly Richers, John C. Palumbo, Patrick Porter, Jose Carlos Verle Rodrigues, Gregory A. Sword

“…Finally, our data reveal population-specific patterns of selection on genomic regions containing putative insecticide resistance alleles, which could relate to their biogeography. Conclusions Our results support the existence of the fall armyworm as a pest dyad in the US, with genetically-distinct strains differing in their population structure, dispersal patterns, and genomic signatures of selection on regions likely involved reproductive isolation and insecticide resistance. …”

Révision de l’espèce Homo erectus (Dubois, 1893) by Valéry Zeitoun

“…The reconstruction of this evolutionary pattern should be matched with other data (dating, biogeography) to allow to reconstruct a real evolutionary synopsis.According to several authors (Stringer, 1984; Hublin, 1986; Kennedy, 1991; Brauer and Mbua, 1992) the existence of autapomorphic features for Homo erectus is not proved. …”
