While phylogenetic information can be useful for testing adaptive hypotheses in humans, these generally involve traits that are (a) not widely shared in the species or (b) fairly widely shared in the Hominidae family, and hence likely of a lower order of complexity than the sorts of traits ...
Together they determine the way gait and face are fused at an arbitrary time. Experimental results show that the adaptive fusion performs significantly better than not only single biometric traits, but also those widely adopted static fusion rules including SUM, PRODUCT, MIN, and MAX. 展开 ...

While two dozen of other bacterial species have been identified as age-associated23, their associations with age in CRC patients were weak, suggesting that CRC status may outperform age in shaping the gut microbiome. As CRC is one of the most studied traits in gut microbiome research, a ...
Repetitive DNA sequences (repeats) are patterns of nucleic acids that occur in multiple copies throughout the genome1. Both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms contain a certain proportion of repeats in the genome2,3,4, particularly mammalians, in which repeats account for 25–50% of their enti...
10f). This suggests that LTi-like ILC3 subsets are expanded during the development of gut-associated lymphoid tissues, but not during the development of mLN. Single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) staining identified all three LTi-like subtypes (Extended Data Fig. 10g) and ...
(2000) on personality and subjective well-being suggests that traits like neuroticism and extraversion are strongly correlated with emotional reactions and overall happiness. Extraverts, for instance, tend to experience positive emotions more frequently – likely due to their predisposition towards social ...
are scarce and controversial. Rye was first transported to Europe as a weed, as early as the LBK phase, around 4400 BCE (Behre1992). By the late Bronze Age, weedy rye had spread throughout the eastern and central parts of Europe and had already developed domestication traits such as ...
Inferences from genetic association studies rely largely on the definition and description of the underlying populations that highlight their genetic similarities and differences. The clustering of human populations into subgroups (population structure)
Visual motion signals can be derived either through a lower-order mechanism in which motion detectors register changes in luminance over space and time or through a higher-order mechanism that tracks salient features as they change position. A recent fMRI study by Claeys and colleagues (this issue...
