Agriculture and forestry cover more than 75% of Europe, and invertebrate pests are a costly challenge for these two economic sectors. Landscape management is increasingly promoted as a solution to enhance biological pest control, but little is known on i

TRADE-OFFS are of fundamental importance in population biology. They prevent the evolution of a darwinian demon (a species that breeds fast, lives long and is both a good competitor and disperser) and result in the wide range of life histories we observe
Here, we present single-cell optimization objective and trade-off inference (SCOOTI), which infers metabolic objectives and trade-offs in biological systems by integrating bulk and single-cell omics data, using metabolic modeling and machine learning. We validated SCOOTI by identifying essential genes...
Functional traits variations and trade-offs are determined by genetic evolution and natural selection [26,27], and evolve along phylogenetic branches [28]. As closely related species have a more common evolutionary history than distantly related species, they are often more consistent in functional tr...
trade‐offsRecycling of livestock manure to agricultural land may reduce the use of synthetic fertilizer and thereby enhance the sustainability of food production. However, the effects of substitution of fertilizer by manure on crop yield, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and emissions of ammonia (NH3...
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology has contributed significantly to diverse research areas in biology, from cancer to development. Since scRNA-seq data is high-dimensional, a common strategy is to learn low-dimensional latent representatio

2021). One aspect of this research that has not been evaluated in the Saturniidae is whether there are putative evolutionary trade-offs between wing shape, body size, and the interaction of fore- and hindwing (HW) shape. These tradeoffs are likely driven by a number of interactions (e.g....
