Abstract Background In the androdioecious nematode Caenorhabditis elegans virtually all progeny produced by hermaphrodite self-fertilization is hermaphrodite while 50% of the progeny that results...

Abstract Background Lysozymes are important model enzymes in biomedical research with a ubiquitous taxonomic distribution ranging from phages up to plants and animals. Their main function appears to...

Sexual coevolution in morphological and behavioral traits has rarely been studied. Using phylogenetic analyses, we explore relationships between sexual characters based on a new molecular phylogeny...

BACKGROUND: Co-evolutionary arms races between parasites and hosts are considered to be of immense importance in the evolution of living organisms, potentially leading to highly dynamic life-history...

Shooting darts: co-evolution and counter-adaptation in hermaphroditic snails (2005)
Koene, Joris M, Schulenburg, Hinrich
Abstract Background Evolutionary conflicts of interest between the sexes often lead to co-evolutionary arms races consisting of repeated arisal of traits advantageous for one sex but harmful to the...

Occasional sex in an 'asexual' polyploid hermaphrodite.
D'Souza, Thomas G, Storhas, Martin, Schulenburg, Hinrich, Beukeboom, Leo W, Michiels, Nicolaas K
Asexual populations are usually considered evolutionary dead-ends because they lack the mechanisms to generate and maintain sufficient genetic diversity. Yet, some asexual forms are remarkably...
Pujol, Nathalie, Zugasti, Olivier, Wong, Daniel, Couillault, Carole, Kurz, C. Léopold, Schulenburg, Hinrich, ...
Encounters with pathogens provoke changes in gene transcription that are an integral part of host innate immune responses. In recent years, studies with invertebrate model organisms have given...
