    Description: Studies that combine experimental manipulations with long-term data collection reveal elaborate interactions among species that affect the structure and dynamics of ecosystems. Research programs in U.S. desert shrubland and pinyon-juniper woodland have shown that (i) complex dynamics of species populations reflect interactions with other organisms and fluctuating climate; (ii) genotype x environment interactions affect responses of species to environmental change; (iii) herbivore-resistance traits of dominant plant species and impacts of "keystone" animal species cascade through the system to affect many organisms and ecosystem processes; and (iv) some environmental perturbations can cause wholesale reorganization of ecosystems because they exceed the ecological tolerances of dominant or keystone species, whereas other changes may be buffered because of the compensatory dynamics of complementary species.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brown, J H -- Whitham, T G -- Morgan Ernest, S K -- Gehring, C A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Jul 27;293(5530):643-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA. jhbrown@unm.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11474100" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: We report the observation of neural processing that occurs within 265 milliseconds after outcome stimuli that inform human participants about gains and losses in a gambling task. A negative-polarity event-related brain potential, probably generated by a medial-frontal region in or near the anterior cingulate cortex, was greater in amplitude when a participant's choice between two alternatives resulted in a loss than when it resulted in a gain. The sensitivity to losses was not simply a reflection of detecting an error; gains did not elicit the medial-frontal activity when the alternative choice would have yielded a greater gain, and losses elicited the activity even when the alternative choice would have yielded a greater loss. Choices made after losses were riskier and were associated with greater loss-related activity than choices made after gains. It follows that medial-frontal computations may contribute to mental states that participate in higher level decisions, including economic choices.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gehring, William J -- Willoughby, Adrian R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Mar 22;295(5563):2279-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Psychology, University of Michigan, 525 East University, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1109, USA. wgehring@umich.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11910116" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A Drosophila gene that contains both a paired box and a homeobox and has extensive sequence homology to the mouse Pax-6 (Small eye) gene was isolated and mapped to chromosome IV in a region close to the eyeless locus. Two spontaneous mutations, ey2 and eyR, contain transposable element insertions into the cloned gene and affect gene expression, particularly in the eye primordia. This indicates that the cloned gene encodes ey. The finding that ey of Drosophila, Small eye of the mouse, and human Aniridia are encoded by homologous genes suggests that eye morphogenesis is under similar genetic control in both vertebrates and insects, in spite of the large differences in eye morphology and mode of development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Quiring, R -- Walldorf, U -- Kloter, U -- Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 5;265(5173):785-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, University of Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7914031" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The body plan of Drosophila is determined to a large extent by homeotic genes, which specify the identity and spatial arrangement of the body segments. Homeotic genes share a characteristic DNA segment, the homeo box, which encodes a defined domain of the homeotic proteins. The homeo domain seems to mediate the binding to specific DNA sequences, whereby the homeotic proteins exert a gene regulatory function. By isolating the normal Antennapedia gene, fusing its protein-coding sequences to an inducible promoter, and reintroducing this fusion gene into the germline of flies, it has been possible to transform head structures into thoracic structures and to alter the body plan in a predicted way. Sequence homologies suggest that similar genetic mechanisms may control development in higher organisms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Jun 5;236(4806):1245-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2884726" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
