Evolutionary history of contagious asexuality in Daphnia pulexSusanne Paland
Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana 47405, USA
Evolution 59:800-13. 2005..If environment-mediated selective asymmetries play no significant role in determining the outcome of competitive interactions between sexuals and asexuals, regions of contact may be setting the stage for continued asexual conquests...
Testosterone affects neural gene expression differently in male and female juncos: a role for hormones in mediating sexual dimorphism and conflictMark P Peterson
Department of Biology, Center for Integrative Study of Animal Behavior, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, United States of America
PLoS ONE 8:e61784. 2013..Hormonally regulated gene expression is a key mechanism underlying sexual dimorphism, and our study identifies specific genes that may mediate some of these processes...
