ADMIXTURE OF EVOLUTIONARY RATES ACROSS A BUTTERFLY HYBRID ZONE

Admixture of evolutionary rates across a butterfly hybrid zone

Hybridization is a major evolutionary force that can erode genetic differentiation between species, whereas reproductive isolation maintains such differentiation.In studying a hybrid zone between the swallowtail butterflies Papilio syfanius and Papilio maackii (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), we made the unexpected discovery that Seat Post Ring genomic

Bounds on the capacity and power of quantum batteries

Quantum batteries, composed of quantum cells, are expected to outperform their classical analogs.The origin of such advantages lies in the role of quantum correlations, which may arise during the charging and discharging processes performed on the battery.In this theoretical work, we introduce a systematic characterization of the relevant quantitie

An overlooked hotspot for birds in the Atlantic Forest

Abstract Montane and submontane forest patches in the state of Bahia, Brazil, are among the few large and preserved Atlantic Forests remnants.They are strongholds Leather Cafe Racer Jacket of an almost complete elevational gradient, which harbor both lowland and highland bird taxa.Despite being considered a biodiversity hotspot, few ornithologists
