Readers' Choice!
Today or tomorrow I'll be reviewing a paper suggested by a reader last week, but meanwhile there are lots of other recent papers that look interesting, at least to me....
Clicking on a title below should take you to the abstract, even if you don't have access to full text. If there's a paper you would particularly like me to discuss, leave a comment to that effect. If there's a quorum (at least 10 votes total), I'll review the paper with the most votes.
Molecular Phylogenetics of Mastodon and Tyrannosaurus rex
Availability of prey resources drives evolution of predator-prey interaction
Protein robustness promotes evolutionary innovations on large evolutionary time-scales
The mechanism of sex ratio adjustment in a pollinating fig wasp
Selection on Major Components of Angiosperm Genomes
Social transmission of nectar-robbing behaviour in bumble-bees
Feeding, fecundity and lifespan in female Drosophila melanogaster
Is it necessary to assume an apartheid-like social structure in Early Anglo-Saxon England?

I vote for Host manipulation by parasites (1st choice) or Darwinian evolution on a chip. They all look good, but Genomicron and others have already covered the T rex / mastadon paper, if that makes a difference!
