Non-genetic individuality in behavior, also termed intragenotypic variability, has been
observed across many different organisms. A potential cause of intragenotypic variability is …

Organisms use various strategies to cope with fluctuating environmental conditions. In diversified
bet-hedging, a single genotype exhibits phenotypic heterogeneity with the expectation …

Individual animals behave differently from each other. This variability is a component of
personality and arises even when genetics and environment are held constant. Discovering the …

We used a next-generation sequencing platform to characterize microbial cell–free DNA (mcfDNA)
in plasma samples from patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell …

Drosophila melanogaster egg production, a proxy for fecundity, is an extensively studied life-history
trait with a strong genetic basis. As eggs develop into larvae and adults, space and …

Sequencing of plasma microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) has gained increased acceptance
as a valuable adjunct to standard-of-care testing for diagnosis of infections throughout the …

Drosophila melanogaster is able to thrive in harsh northern climates through adaptations in
life-history traits and physiological mechanisms that allow for survival through the winter. We …

Fluctuating environmental pressures can challenge organisms by repeatedly shifting the
optimum phenotype. Two contrasting evolutionary strategies to cope with these fluctuations are …

Phenotypic differences among individuals are ubiquitous, but our understanding of their origins
and evolutionary consequences is still not complete. Previous work has identified within-…
