Comparing divergent model organisms
Comparative analysis of the transcriptome across distant species Excerpt: Overall, our results underscore the importance of comparing divergent model organisms to human to highlight conserved biological principles (and disentangle them from lineage-specific adaptations). My comment: In the detailed comparisons of divergent model organisms portrayed in Nutrient-dependent/pheromone-controlled adaptive evolution: a model, I underscored what is known about cell type differentiation in species from microbes to man. By placing what is known into the context of nutrient-dependent amino acid substitutions and biodiversity…
