Late Mitochondrial Origin Is an Artifact
The origin of mitochondria was a crucial event in eukaryote evolution. A recent report claimed to provide evidence, based on branch length variation in phylogenetic trees, that the mitochondrion came late in eukaryotic evolution. Here, we reinvestigate their claim with a reanalysis of the published data. We show that the analyses underpinning a late mitochondrial origin suffer from multiple fat...
متن کاملThe Earth is not yet an artifact
n the previous article in this issue [1], Brad Allenby argues for a more active style of planetary management. He notes, " the biosphere itself, at levels from the genetic to the landscape , is increasingly a human product. " While the earth is undoubtedly being transformed by human action [2]-[4], the implications of the transformation for environmental management are in dispute. Allenby sugge...
متن کاملThe Handicap Principle Is an Artifact
The handicap principle is one of the most influential ideas in evolutionary biology. It asserts that when there is conflict of interest in a signaling interaction signals must be costly in order to be reliable. While in evolutionary biology it is a common practice to distinguish between indexes and fakable signals, we argue this dichotomy is an artifact of existing popular signaling models. Onc...
متن کاملTranscription activity hot spot, is it real or an artifact?
Transcription activity 'hot spots', defined as chromosome regions that contain more expression quantitative trait loci than would have been expected by chance, have been frequently detected both in humans and in model organisms. It has been common to consider the existence of hot spots as evidence for master regulation of gene expression. However, hot spots could also simply be due to highly co...
متن کاملIs multiscaling an artifact in the stochastically forced Burgers equation?
We study turbulence in the one-dimensional Burgers equation with a white-in-time, Gaussian random force that has a Fourier-space spectrum approximately 1/k, where k is the wave number. From very high-resolution numerical simulations, in the limit of vanishing viscosity, we find evidence for multiscaling of velocity structure functions which cannot be falsified by standard tests. We find a new a...
