Unbelievably, the whales evolved from land based animals like modern mouse deers!

I am fascinated by the recent evidence showing that Polyplody may grant evolutionary advantages in the presence of drastic fitness changes (e.g. cataclysms):
https://www.science.org/content/article/cells-extra-genomes-may-help-tissues-respond-injuries-species-survive-cataclysms.
One option is that extra chromosomes may increase connectivity of gene regulatory networks--- fascinating work from van de Peer on that note: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.04.28.538696, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0220257.
The results are similar to ours a long time ago with RNA Editing , where we experimented with drastic fitness changes (simulated cataclysms) and emergence of memory: https://doi.org/10.1162/evco.2007.15.3.253, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-74913-4_7.
RNA Editing, we started arguing long ago, also adds additional regulatory variety and proves advantageous in drastic fitness changes---though RNA editing works by adding more variants, not greater number of regulatory possibilities (network connectivity) as it is hypothesized for polyploidy. Maybe this explains why the latter is maladaptive in stable fitness landscapes, whereas RNA Editing often isn't?

Here’s me getting excited to be walking among so many extant relatives of the ancient giant ferns in the “jungle” of the Lost Gardens of Heligan. It was such a cool place to visit! #PlantLover #plantbiology #Evolution

Next was a short talk by Penny Spikins on the #evolution of #autism. This is an amazing examination of why autism likely evolved and the advantages it confers on groups. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb3x_ZzZTbE&t=2s (6/11) #anthropology

Corn/Maize hybridization:
Maize🌽 has interesting genetic features called transposon ('moving DNA') and xenia (:direct effect of pollination to the fruit) to produce divergent colors.
In a word, fun!😆

@squig i consider them and any #existential narrative to be a solution to social scale. i think commonalities amongst narratives are interestingly acute data points that both explain how we got to our present place but also why, over the course of our #evolution, some societies "obsoleted" others because of cultural efficiences ...which leaves us in a rather terrifying place today insofar as biodiversity or lack thereof
