Abstract:
We demonstrate the role of the segment polarity gene patched (ptc) in patterning in the cuticle of the adult fly. Genetic mosaics of a lethal allele of patched show that the contribution of patched varies in a position-specific manner, defining three regions in the wing where ptc clones, respectively, behave as wild-type cells, affect vein formation, or are rarely recovered. Analysis of twin clones demonstrates that the reduced clone frequency results from a proliferation failure or cell loss. In the region where clones upset venation, they autonomously fail to form veins and also non-autonomo

Abstract:
Intrasegmental patterning in the Drosophila embryo requires the activity of the segment polarity genes. The acquisition of positional information by cells during embryogenesis is reflected in the dynamic patterns of expression of several of these genes. In the case of patched, early ubiquitous expression is followed by its repression in the anterior portion of each parasegment; subsequently each broad band of expression splits into two narrow stripes. In this study we analyse the contribution of other segment polarity gene functions to the evolution of this pattern; we find that the first step

Abstract:
Hedgehog genes have been implicated in inductive signaling during development in a variety of organisms. A key element of the hedgehog signaling system is encoded by the gene patched. In Drosophila hedgehog regulates gene expression by antagonizing the action of patched. In addition, patched is itself a transcriptional target of hedgehog signaling. We have isolated a chicken patched homolog and find it to be strongly expressed adjacent to all tissues where members of the hedgehog family are expressed. As in Drosophila, ectopic expression of Sonic hedgehog leads to ectopic induction of chicken

Abstract:
We discuss the roles of gene flow, genetic drift, and selection in determining the distribution of genetic variation in complex, real-world landscapes. A metapopulation is a group of populations that experience some degree of gene flow among them. Metapopulation structure can have complex effects on patterns of genetic variation within and among populations. For species that do not naturally occur in discrete habitat patches, a landscape genetics framework is more appropriate. Landscape genetics combines population genetics, landscape ecology, and spatial statistics to understand how environmental heterogeneity affects gene flow and genetic variation. Habitat loss and fragmentation have severed connectivity among populations of many formerly continuous species, isolating populations that then lose genetic variation due to reduced gene flow. Genetic rescue, the supplementation of small inbred populations with immigrants from larger more genetically diverse populations, can be used to increase genetic diversity and reduce extinction probabilities of populations isolated by habitat fragmentation.

Abstract:
Voltage clamp and patch clamp techniques are used to reveal heterogeneity of ion currents carried through voltage-dependent sodium, calcium, and potassium channels. Advances in channel molecular biology have made it clear that the diversity of ion channels is even greater than was suspected from these electrophysiological measurements. This diversity is achieved by several different mechanisms, including the existence of multiple genes for the pore-forming α‎ subunits of ion channels, alternative splicing of the messenger RNA transcribed from each individual gene, formation of heterotetramers containing different α‎ subunits of potassium channels, and modulation of channel properties by auxiliary subunits that may themselves comprise a large and diverse family of proteins. Moreover, potassium channels can be further categorized into voltage-dependent, calcium-dependent, sodium-dependent, two-pore, and inward rectifier channels. Emerging evidence suggests that many human diseases are associated with dysfunction of individual classes of ion channels in neurons.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the material culture of World War I, focusing on the objects of commemorative biography—the memorial volumes, collected, curated, and often privately published, that became familiar relics in so many mourning households. It considers both the materials that went into these volumes, including the soldiers' own writings, and the volumes themselves as material objects. The chapter therefore differs in its methodology from a strictly literary reading of the text but also from a strictly materialist one of the artifact. Patched together out of scraps and fragments—letters and poems by the deceased; memoirs by family members; tributes from others; snippets of inspirational literature; photographs and drawings; diary fragments—these commemorative volumes deploy a proliferation of materials to make up for lives that lacked recognizable fullness and dimension. In doing so, these volumes created a new kind of biographical hybrid, occupying an ambiguous place between text and object and an ambiguous place in a rapidly changing genre.

Full text
Abstract:
The environmental variables hypothesized to cause behavioral adaptation are distributed across a wide array of spatial scales, from local variation in factors such as food sources and territorial encounters to regional or continental variation in factors such as seasonality and the presence of predators. Geographic variation in behavior, the topic of this book, is just one of the potential evolutionary responses to environmental variation. Because behavioral divergence among populations generated by disparate natural selection can be counterbalanced by the homogenizing influence of gene flow, adaptive geographic variation can evolve only if the spatial scale of variation in natural selection is greater than the scale of gene flow (Endler 1977, Slatkin 1978). If geographic variation does not evolve because the spatial scale of selection is smaller than the scale of gene flow, populations may instead evolve adaptive phenotypic plasticity (Bradshaw 1965); the expression, by a single genotype, of different fitness-enhancing phenotypes in different environments. Because the same evolutionary processes operating on different spatial scales can generate behavioral geographic variation, behavioral phenotypic plasticity, or geographic variation in phenotypic plasticity, I devote this chapter to development of a hierarchical perspective tor studying environmental variation and behavioral evolution. This perspective emphasizes the shared evolutionary processes and research methodologies common to different levels of spatial variation, such as the balance of gene flow, natural selection, and genetic drift, the relationship between environmental patch size and local adaptation, and the effects of historical contingencies and genetic constraints on behavioral adaptation and phenotypic plasticity. In what follows, I review behavioral research in two unrelated taxa to illustrate the range of possible evolutionary responses to different patterns of environmental variation. First, I discuss different spatial scales of adaptation in the climbing behavior of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) and provide a hierarchical analysis of the effects of natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow. Second, I discuss diet-induced phenotypic plasticity in the feeding behavior of acridid grasshoppers (Melanoplus femurrubrum and M. sanguinipes) and the evolution of behavioral norms of reaction in response to local spatial and temporal variation in plant environments.

Abstract:
&lt;em&gt;Abstract&lt;/em&gt;.— In 1985, at the annual meeting of the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists in Knoxville, Tennessee, the symposium “Community and Evolutionary Ecology of North American Stream Fishes,” organized by W. J. Matthews and D. C. Heins, resulted in the 1987 publication of a 30-paper volume. Main themes included conceptual models of life history, zoogeography, or community dynamics; habitat use; responses to stress or to flooding; predator effects; effects of grazing fishes; ecomorphology, morphological plasticity, niche packing, or rarity; anthropogenic changes in fish faunas; life history variation or tactics; and genetic variation or divergence. Numerous papers from that symposium were influential on future research in stream fish ecology. As of 1985, many approaches or techniques now in common use did not exist or were barely used by stream fish ecologists, including gene sequencing, geographic information systems, the Internet, “landscape ecology,” “metapopulations,” “macroecology,” and “riverscapes,” and global warming was not yet a household word. Since the 1985 symposium, there have been two important international meetings of fish ecologists in Spain, organized by Javier Lobon-Cervia. The current volume compliments these efforts by attempting to synthesize advances in the field of stream fish community ecology. Since the 1985 symposium, fish ecologists have adopted many new approaches, including more large-scale and long-term surveys, stable isotopes, and ecological stoichiometry, among others, and linkages among habitat patches, fish effects in stream ecosystems, and effects of climate change are a major focus. This volume from the 2008 symposium includes 24 papers that document progress in stream fish ecology since the 1985 symposium, some of which take new theoretical and empirical approaches to address questions that were unasked or unanswerable two decades ago.
