Diverse Headgear Of Hoofed Mammals Evolved From A Common Ancestor

The small ossicones of a giraffe to the gigantic antlers of a moose all evolved from the same ancestor but are dramatically different due to differences in gene expression.

Warming oceans and rivers cause genomic changes in fish, scientists find

A study of four common fish species by University of Manchester scientists has revealed that gene expression changes when their developing embryos are exposed to warmer waters.

Orchids' ability to grow on other plants independently evolved multiple times

The most extensive study of the genetic relationships among orchids to date reveals that the flower's ability to grow on other plants evolved independently multiple times. A team of researchers, led by Penn State biologists, compared the sequences of 1,450 genes from 610 orchid species to reconstruct the orchid family tree and clarify the evolutionary relationships among the many subgroups of this large plant family and showed that "epiphytism"—the ability to grow on other plants—evolved at least 14 separate times.
