However, our understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying various aspects of their reproductive biology, including sex determination, are still lacking. This is partly due to the scarcity of genomic resources for Artemia species and crustaceans in general. Here, we present a chromosome-level genome assembly of Artemia franciscana (Kellogg 1906), from the Great Salt Lake, USA. The genome is 1GB, and the majority of the genome (81%) is scaffolded into 21 linkage groups using a previously published high-density linkage map. We performed coverage and FST analyses using male and female genomic and transcriptomic reads to quantify the extent of differentiation between the Z and W chromosomes. Additionally, we quantified the expression levels in male and female heads and gonads and found further evidence for dosage compensation in this species.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"id":"0B46FACA-A8E1-11E9-9BD3-79D1E5697425","orcid":"0000-0002-5328-7231","last_name":"Elkrewi","full_name":"Elkrewi, Marwan N","first_name":"Marwan N"}],"keyword":["sex chromosome evolution","genome assembly","dosage compensation"],"citation":{"ista":"Elkrewi MN. 2024.

in a range of environments, each with its unique characteristics. While some thrive in uniform (homogeneous) landscapes where environmental conditions stay relatively consistent across space, others traverse the complexities of spatially heterogeneous terrains. Comprehending how species are distributed and how they interact within these landscapes holds the key to gaining insights into their evolutionary dynamics while also informing conservation and management strategies.\r\n\r\nFor species inhabiting heterogeneous landscapes, when the rate of dispersal is low compared to spatial fluctuations in selection pressure, localized adaptations may emerge. Such adaptation in response to varying selection strengths plays an important role in the persistence of populations in our rapidly changing world. Hence, species in nature are continuously in a struggle to adapt to local environmental conditions, to ensure their continued survival. Natural populations can often adapt in time scales short enough for evolutionary changes to influence ecological dynamics and vice versa, thereby creating a feedback between evolution and demography. The analysis of this feedback and the relative contributions of gene flow, demography, drift, and natural selection to genetic variation and differentiation has remained a recurring theme in evolutionary biology. Nevertheless, the effective role of these forces in maintaining variation and shaping patterns of diversity is not fully understood. Even in homogeneous environments devoid of local adaptations, such understanding remains elusive. Understanding this feedback is crucial, for example in determining the conditions under which extinction risk can be mitigated in peripheral populations subject to deleterious mutation accumulation at the edges of species’ ranges\r\nas well as in highly fragmented populations.\r\n\r\nIn this thesis we explore both uniform and spatially heterogeneous metapopulations, investigating and providing theoretical insights into the dynamics of local adaptation in the latter and examining the dynamics of load and extinction as well as the impact of joint ecological and evolutionary (eco-evolutionary) dynamics in the former. The thesis is divided into 5 chapters.\r\n\r\nChapter 1 provides a general introduction into the subject matter, clarifying concepts and ideas used throughout the thesis. In chapter 2, we explore how fast a species distributed across a heterogeneous landscape adapts to changing conditions marked by alterations in carrying capacity, selection pressure, and migration rate.\r\n\r\nIn chapter 3, we investigate how migration selection and drift influences adaptation and the maintenance of variation in a metapopulation with three habitats, an extension of previous models of adaptation in two habitats. We further develop analytical approximations for the critical threshold required for polymorphism to persist.\r\n\r\nThe focus of chapter 4 of the thesis is on understanding the interplay between ecology and evolution as coupled processes. We investigate how eco-evolutionary feedback between migration, selection, drift, and demography influences eco-evolutionary outcomes in marginal populations subject to deleterious mutation accumulation. Using simulations as well as theoretical approximations of the coupled dynamics of population size and allele frequency, we analyze how gene flow from a large mainland source influences genetic load and population size on an island (i.e., in a marginal population) under genetically realistic assumptions. Analyses of this sort are important because small isolated populations, are repeatedly affected by complex interactions between ecological and evolutionary processes, which can lead to their death. Understanding these interactions can therefore provide an insight into the conditions under which extinction risk can be mitigated in peripheral populations thus, contributing to conservation and restoration efforts.\r\n\r\nChapter 5 extends the analysis in chapter 4 to consider the dynamics of load (due to deleterious mutation accumulation) and extinction risk in a metapopulation. We explore the role of gene flow, selection, and dominance on load and extinction risk and further pinpoint critical thresholds required for metapopulation persistence.\r\n\r\nOverall this research contributes to our understanding of ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that shape species’ persistence in fragmented landscapes, a crucial foundation for successful conservation efforts and biodiversity management."}],"date_updated":"2025-05-26T09:05:10Z","oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"No","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","oa_version":"Published Version","project":[{"_id":"2564DBCA-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"International IST Doctoral Program","call_identifier":"H2020","grant_number":"665385"},{"grant_number":"P32896","name":"Causes and consequences of population fragmentation","_id":"c08d3278-5a5b-11eb-8a69-fdb09b55f4b8"},{"name":"Polygenic Adaptation in a Metapopulation","_id":"34c872fe-11ca-11ed-8bc3-8534b82131e6","grant_number":"26380"}],"_id":"14711","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2663 - 337X"]}},{"external_id":{"arxiv":["2310.18034"]},"title":"Experimental evaluation of fully dynamic k-means via coresets","doi":"10.1137/1.9781611977929.17","year":"2024","ec_funded":1,"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2310.18034"}],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"For a set of points in Rd, the Euclidean k-means problems consists of finding k centers such that the sum of distances squared from each data point to its closest center is minimized.

Dynamic reorganization of adhesion receptors and the actomyosin cell cortex in space and time plays a central role in cell-cell contact formation and maturation. Nevertheless, how this process is mechanistically achieved when new contacts are formed remains unclear. Here, by building a biomimetic assay composed of progenitor cells adhering to supported lipid bilayers functionalized with E-cadherin ectodomains, we show that cortical F-actin flows, driven by the depletion of myosin-2 at the cell contact center, mediate the dynamic reorganization of adhesion receptors and cell cortex at the contact. E-cadherin-dependent downregulation of the small GTPase RhoA at the forming contact leads to both a depletion of myosin-2 and a decrease of F-actin at the contact center. At the contact rim, in contrast, myosin-2 becomes enriched by the retraction of bleb-like protrusions, resulting in a cortical tension gradient from the contact rim to its center. This tension gradient, in turn, triggers centrifugal F-actin flows, leading to further accumulation of F-actin at the contact rim and the progressive redistribution of E-cadherin from the contact center to the rim. Eventually, this combination of actomyosin downregulation and flows at the contact determines the characteristic molecular organization, with E-cadherin and F-actin accumulating at the contact rim, where they are needed to mechanically link the contractile cortices of the adhering cells."}],"department":[{"_id":"CaHe"},{"_id":"EdHa"},{"_id":"MaLo"},{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"has_accepted_license":"1","file":[{"access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2024-01-16T10:53:31Z","file_size":5183861,"file_name":"2024_CurrentBiology_Arslan.pdf","checksum":"51220b76d72a614208f84bdbfbaf9b72","date_created":"2024-01-16T10:53:31Z","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"dernst","file_id":"14813","success":1}],"date_created":"2024-01-14T23:00:56Z","date_published":"2024-01-08T00:00:00Z","article_type":"original","month":"01","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","publisher":"Elsevier","file_date_updated":"2024-01-16T10:53:31Z","page":"171-182.e8","publication":"Current Biology","issue":"1","type":"journal_article","day":"08","status":"public","corr_author":"1","intvolume":"        34"},{"citation":{"mla":"Clozeau, Nicolas, and Francesco Mattesini. “Annealed Quantitative Estimates for the Quadratic 2D-Discrete Random Matching Problem.” <i>Probability Theory and Related Fields</i>, Springer Nature, 2024, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00440-023-01254-0\">10.1007/s00440-023-01254-0</a>.","ama":"Clozeau N, Mattesini F.

Such lasers typically attain their stability through frequency locking to reference cavities. State-of-the-art locking performances to date had been achieved using frequency modulation based methods, complemented with active drift cancellation systems. We demonstrate an all passive, modulation-free laser-cavity locking technique (squash locking) that utilizes changes in spatial beam ellipticity for error signal generation, and a coherent polarization post-selection for noise resilience. By comparing two identically built proof-of-principle systems, we show a frequency locking instability of 5×10<jats:sup>−7</jats:sup> relative to the cavity linewidth at 10 s averaging. The results surpass the demonstrated performances of methods engineered over the last five decades, potentially enabling an advancement in the precision control of lasers, while creating avenues for bridging the performance gaps between industrial grade lasers with scientific ones due to the afforded simplicity and scalability."}],"author":[{"id":"2E054C4C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Fritz R","orcid":"0000-0002-4947-8924","last_name":"Diorico","full_name":"Diorico, Fritz R"},{"id":"0f02ed6a-b514-11ee-b891-8379c5f19cb7","first_name":"Artem","last_name":"Zhutov","full_name":"Zhutov, Artem"},{"first_name":"Onur","orcid":"0000-0002-2031-204X","last_name":"Hosten","full_name":"Hosten, Onur","id":"4C02D85E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"}],"keyword":["Atomic and Molecular Physics","and Optics","Electronic","Optical and Magnetic Materials"],"has_accepted_license":"1","department":[{"_id":"OnHo"}],"date_created":"2024-01-15T10:25:38Z","file":[{"relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"14824","creator":"dernst","success":1,"access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2024-01-17T08:53:16Z","file_size":4558986,"file_name":"2023_Optica_Diorico.pdf","checksum":"eb99ca7d0fe73e22f121875175546ed7","date_created":"2024-01-17T08:53:16Z"}],"month":"01","article_type":"original","date_published":"2024-01-20T00:00:00Z","publisher":"Optica Publishing Group","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"issue":"1","publication":"Optica","page":"26-31","file_date_updated":"2024-01-17T08:53:16Z","day":"20","type":"journal_article","intvolume":"        11","status":"public"},{"type":"dissertation","day":"19","supervisor":[{"id":"3FA14672-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-5193-4036","full_name":"Csicsvari, Jozsef L","last_name":"Csicsvari","first_name":"Jozsef L"}],"status":"public","page":"89","file_date_updated":"2024-01-19T11:04:05Z","date_published":"2024-01-19T00:00:00Z","month":"01","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria","department":[{"_id":"GradSch"},{"_id":"JoCs"}],"degree_awarded":"PhD","has_accepted_license":"1","file":[{"access_level":"closed","date_updated":"2024-01-19T11:04:05Z","checksum":"d3fa3de1abd5af5204c13e9d55375615","date_created":"2024-01-19T11:04:05Z","file_size":8656268,"file_name":"PhD_Thesis_190124.docx","creator":"hchiossi","file_id":"14838","relation":"source_file","content_type":"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"},{"file_id":"14839","creator":"hchiossi","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"13adc8dcfb5b6b18107f89f0a98fa8bd","date_created":"2024-01-19T11:03:59Z","file_size":6567275,"embargo":"2025-01-19","file_name":"PhD_Thesis_190124.pdf","access_level":"closed","date_updated":"2024-01-19T11:03:59Z","embargo_to":"open_access"}],"date_created":"2024-01-16T14:25:21Z","publication_status":"published","citation":{"apa":"Chiossi, H.

The nuclear auxin pathway mediates gene expression and controls growth and development in land plants, but this pathway is absent from algal sister groups. Several components of rapid responses have been identified in Arabidopsis, but it is unknown if these are part of a conserved mechanism. We recently identified a fast, proteome-wide phosphorylation response to auxin. Here, we show that this response occurs across 5 land plant and algal species and converges on a core group of shared targets. We found conserved rapid physiological responses to auxin in the same species and identified rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (RAF)-like protein kinases as central mediators of auxin-triggered phosphorylation across species. Genetic analysis connects this kinase to both auxin-triggered protein phosphorylation and rapid cellular response, thus identifying an ancient mechanism for fast auxin responses in the green lineage."}],"keyword":["General Biochemistry","Genetics and Molecular Biology"],"author":[{"full_name":"Kuhn, Andre","last_name":"Kuhn","first_name":"Andre"},{"first_name":"Mark","last_name":"Roosjen","full_name":"Roosjen, Mark"},{"full_name":"Mutte, Sumanth","last_name":"Mutte","first_name":"Sumanth"},{"first_name":"Shiv Mani","full_name":"Dubey, Shiv Mani","last_name":"Dubey"},{"last_name":"Carrillo Carrasco","full_name":"Carrillo Carrasco, Vanessa Polet","first_name":"Vanessa Polet"},{"full_name":"Boeren, Sjef","last_name":"Boeren","first_name":"Sjef"},{"first_name":"Aline","full_name":"Monzer, Aline","last_name":"Monzer","id":"2DB5D88C-D7B3-11E9-B8FD-7907E6697425"},{"full_name":"Koehorst, Jasper","last_name":"Koehorst","first_name":"Jasper"},{"last_name":"Kohchi","full_name":"Kohchi, Takayuki","first_name":"Takayuki"},{"first_name":"Ryuichi","last_name":"Nishihama","full_name":"Nishihama, Ryuichi"},{"id":"43905548-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Fendrych","full_name":"Fendrych, Matyas","orcid":"0000-0002-9767-8699","first_name":"Matyas"},{"first_name":"Joris","last_name":"Sprakel","full_name":"Sprakel, Joris"},{"id":"4159519E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Jiří","last_name":"Friml","full_name":"Friml, Jiří","orcid":"0000-0002-8302-7596"},{"last_name":"Weijers","full_name":"Weijers, Dolf","first_name":"Dolf"}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","volume":187,"date_updated":"2024-01-22T13:43:40Z","oa":1,"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1097-4172"],"issn":["0092-8674"]},"_id":"14826","pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"261099A6-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Tracing Evolution of Auxin Transport and Polarity in Plants","grant_number":"742985"},{"call_identifier":"FWF","name":"RNA-directed DNA methylation in plant development","_id":"262EF96E-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"P29988"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","acknowledgement":"We are grateful to Asuka Shitaku and Eri Koide for generating and sharing the Marchantia PRAF-mCitrine line and Peng-Cheng Wang for sharing the Arabidopsis raf mutant.

The vacuum-synthesized catalyst demonstrates a low overpotential of 88 mV at −10 mA cm–2 and a small Tafel slope of 73 mV dec–1 suggesting relatively higher charge transfer kinetics for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) compared with the specimens synthesized under N2 or O2 atmosphere. It also demonstrates an oxygen evolution (OER) overpotential of 260 mV at 10 mA cm–2 with a low Tafel slope of 63 mV dec–1. In a full-cell water-splitting device, the vacuum-synthesized ZnNiO heterostructure demonstrates a cell voltage of 1.94 V at 50 mA cm–2 and shows remarkable stability over 24 h at a high current density of 100 mA cm–2. It is also demonstrated in this study that Zn-doping, surface, and interface engineering in transition-metal oxides play a crucial role in efficient electrocatalytic water splitting. Also, the results obtained from density functional theory (DFT + U = 0–8 eV), where U is the on-site Coulomb repulsion parameter also known as Hubbard U, based electronic structure calculations confirm that Zn doping constructively modifies the electronic structure, in both the valence band and the conduction band, and found to be suitable in tailoring the carrier’s effective masses of electrons and holes. The decrease in electron’s effective masses together with large differences between the effective masses of electrons and holes is noticed, which is found to be mainly responsible for achieving the best water-splitting performance from a 9% Zn-doped NiO sample prepared under vacuum.","lang":"eng"}]}]
