Sex Determination: Ciliates' Self-Censorship
Differentiation involves the expression of certain latent cellular characteristics and the repression of others. A new study has revealed how Paramecium uses short RNAs to delete information from the somatic genome of one of its two sexes.
متن کاملCensorship and Two Types of Self-Censorship∗†
We propose and defend a distinction between two types of self-censorship: public and private. In public self-censorship, individuals restrain their expressive attitudes in response to public censors.

Assuming advertising-sponsored, profit-maximizing outlets, we show that (i) topics sensitive to advertisers can be underreported (self-censored) by all outlets in the market, (ii) self-censorship increases ...

struggled for years with parasites that evolve resistance to commonly used drugs. Why should it be any different in animals? Yet as far as we know, no study has ever looked at whether parasites become resistant to the chemicals in the plants that hosts use for protection, though in the Drosophila example referenced above, ethanol did not negatively affect larvae of specialist wasps as strongly ...
