During development, transcription factors and signaling molecules govern gene regulatory networks to direct the formation of unique morphologies. As changes in are often implicated morphological evolution, mapping factor landscapes is important, especially tissues that undergo rapid evolutionary change. The terminalia (genital anal structures) Drosophila melanogaster its close relatives exhibit dramatic morphology between species. While previous studies have identified network components...

Abstract Identifying the molecular origins by which new morphological structures evolve is one of long standing problems in evolutionary biology. To date, vanishingly few examples provide a compelling account how morphologies were initially formed, thereby limiting our understanding diverse forms life derived their complex features. Here, we evidence that large projections on Drosophila eugracilis phallus are implicated sexual conflict have evolved through co-option trichome genetic network....

Abstract Objective To identify the risk factors for Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS) resident attrition. Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Annual Graduate Medical Education track survey. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of OHNS residents who matriculated between 2006 2015. Variables analyzed included age at matriculation, sex, race/ethnicity, medical degree type, program location, attrition status, matriculation year period (2006‐2010, 2011‐2015). A...
