El petit peix que ha evolucionat en un temps rècord pel fet de viure al desert 

    Bueno i Torrens, David, 1965- (2016-03-14)

    La vall de la Mort, als EUA, és una de les zones més àrides, caloroses i inhòspites del planeta. A cavall entre els estats de Califòrnia i Nevada, el nombre de plantes i animals és significativament escàs. La majoria ...

    Genetics and learning: how the genes influence educational attainment 

    Bueno i Torrens, David, 1965- (2019-07-17)

    The brain is the organ of thought. The word thought is defined as the act of thinking about or considering something: an idea or opinion, or a set of ideas about a particular subject. It implicitly includes the processes ...

    Global warming and chromosomal inversion adaptation in isolated islands: Drosophila subobscura populations from Madeira 

    Madrenas, Raquel; Balanyà i Maymó, Joan; Arenas Solà, Concepción; Khadem, Manhaz; Mestres i Naval, Francesc (2023-02-20)

    Global warming is an environmental phenomenon to which species must adapt to survive. The chromosomal inversion polymorphism of Drosophila subobscura constitutes a genomic architecture that provides an adaptive capacity ...

    Inbreeding and thermal adaptation in Drosophila subobscura 

    Zivanovic, Goran; Arenas Solà, Concepción; Mestres i Naval, Francesc (2015-02-09)

    Using a well-adapted Drosophila subobscura population (Avala, Serbia), a drastic experiment of inbreeding was carried out to assess whether the expected level of homozygosity could be reached or if other evolutionary forces ...

    L'activitat humana accelera l'evolució de les espècies 

    Bueno i Torrens, David, 1965- (2022-06-13)

    Un dels aspectes més importants en biologia de la conservació és anticipar fins a quin punt les espècies es podran adaptar amb prou rapidesa als canvis que s'estan produint en el clima, deguts, en bona part o en la seva ...

    Long-term changes in the inversion chromosomal polymorphism: Drosophila subobscura population from Rasht (North of Iran) 

    Khadem, Manhaz; Arenas Solà, Concepción; Balanyà i Maymó, Joan; Mestres i Naval, Francesc (2022-10-25)

    Drosophila subobscura is characterized by a rich chromosomal polymorphism for inversions. Many inversions are adaptive to global warming and can be classified as 'warm' or 'cold' adapted. However, most studies were carried ...

    Multiple and diverse structural changes affect the breakpoint regions of polymorphic inversions across the Drosophila genus 

    Puerma Rodríguez, Eva María; Orengo Ferriz, Dorcas J.; Aguadé Porres, Montserrat (2017-10-16)

    Chromosomal polymorphism is widespread in the Drosophila genus, with extensive evidence supporting its adaptive character in diverse species. Moreover, inversions are the major contributors to the genus chromosomal evolution. ...

    Temporal and habitat adaptations in Drosophila subobscura populations: changes in chromosomal inversions  

    Zivanovic, Goran; Arenas Solà, Concepción; Mestres i Naval, Francesc (2025-07-21)

    In insects, chromosomal inversion polymorphism has been related with different adaptations, including global warming. Regarding this environmental change, Drosophila subobscura stands out as a useful model species due to ...

    The adaptive value of chromosomal inversions and climatic change. Studies on the natural populations of Drosophila subobscura from the Balkans 

    Zivanovic, Goran; Arenas Solà, Concepción; Mestres i Naval, Francesc (2023-07-03)

    The adaptive value of the Drosophila subobscura chromosomal inversion polymorphism with regard to environmental effects is well-known. However, the specific details of the inversion adaptations to the global warming scenario ...
