Experiments

Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

  Genetic differentiation is generally greater across the oceanic barrier separating Buru and Seram than across the lowland barrier separating New Guinea mountain ranges.

  Dietary restriction and reduced temperature extend Drosophila lifespan via intrinsically different demographic mechanisms: dietary restriction lowers intrinsic frailty, while lower temperature reduces the rate of senescence.

• Adaptation, aging, and genomic information.

  Full-text index only

  Aging is caused primarily by the absence of adaptive genomic information for later-age survival and function, due to declining forces of natural selection with adult age; this absence secondarily produces misallocation and damage at every level of biological organization.

  A copying-model approach using SNP haplotype sharing can infer both the order of population founding and the donor populations contributing ancestry to each new population.

  Full-text index only

  Natural selection and population demographic history both distort patterns of genetic variation relative to the standard neutral model, so single-locus tests cannot unambiguously distinguish selection from demography.

  The −13,910*T allele first underwent selection among dairying farmers around 7,500 years ago in a region between the central Balkans and central Europe, possibly linked to the Linearbandkeramik culture.

  Mitochondrial DNA shows no significant difference between Indian tribal and caste populations except higher frequency of west Eurasian-specific haplogroups in upper castes, especially in northwest India

  Comparing candidate loci to empirically matched random genomic regions (ENCODE data) avoids the strong demographic/mutation assumptions required by theoretical neutral models and provides a robust test for selection
