Titles in evolution

Here's pickings from the last month of new papers in evolution. Those are just the ones that popped out at me in the tocs, but there are of course many, many others. I wonder how many were published in creation science and intelligent design? What are those journals again? Answers Research Journal is one - nothing there since July 11th (check out the archive there, if you want to have a laugh).
  • Functional and evolutionary trade-offs co-occur between two consolidated memory phases in Drosophila melanogaster
  • Life histories and the evolution of cooperative breeding in mammals
  • Evolutionary novelty in a rat with no molars
  • General and inducible hypermutation facilitate parallel adaptation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa despite divergent mutation spectra
  • ADAPTATION AND MALADAPTATION IN SELFING AND OUTCROSSING SPECIES: NEW MUTATIONS VERSUS STANDING VARIATION
  • Epistasis from functional dependence of fitness on underlying traits
  • Dolphin genome provides evidence for adaptive evolution of nervous system genes and a molecular rate slowdown
  • Trophic specialization influences the rate of environmental niche evolution in damselfishes (Pomacentridae)
  • Kin selection, not group augmentation, predicts helping in an obligate cooperatively breeding bird
  • Genetic change for earlier migration timing in a pink salmon population
  • Superinfection and the evolution of resistance to antimalarial drugs
  • Fluctuations of Fitness Distributions and the Rate of Muller’s Ratchet
  • A Resolution of the Mutation Load Paradox in Humans
  • Calcium and salinity as selective factors in plate morph evolution of the three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus)
  • Ontogeny Tends to Recapitulate Phylogeny in Digital Organisms
  • FISHER'S GEOMETRICAL MODEL OF FITNESS LANDSCAPE AND VARIANCE IN FITNESS WITHIN A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT
  • GENETIC SIGNATURE OF ADAPTIVE PEAK SHIFT IN THREESPINE STICKLEBACK

  1. The lack of new creationist publication only shows how rigorous their peer review process is.

  3. Sorry, I mispelled a word. Here is my original comment:

    A few questions:

    - Why no links for these evolution articles?

    - Why no new papers on the theoretical progress for the Evolutionary Extended Synthesis? Are you aware of any? Is it really going to be a non-selectionist but Lamarckian evolutionary theory? Why will it be announced only in 2020?

  4. No links to the articles because I am too lazy to post them, and because those articles are easily found on the web using any search engine.

    I have no idea what you are talking about there. Lamarckian theory? 2020? What?
