", "abstract": "Members of the bacterial genus Rickettsia were originally identified as causative agents of vector-borne diseases in mammals. However, many Rickettsia species are arthropod symbionts and close relatives of 'Candidatus Megaira', which are symbiotic associates of microeukaryotes. Here, we clarify the evolutionary relationships between these organisms by assembling 26 genomes of Rickettsia species from understudied groups, including the Torix group, and two genomes of 'Ca. Megaira' from various insects and microeukaryotes. Our analyses of the new genomes, in comparison with previously described ones, indicate that the accessory genome diversity and broad host range of Torix Rickettsia are comparable to those of all other Rickettsia combined. Therefore, the Torix clade may play unrecognized roles in invertebrate biology and physiology. We argue this clade should be given its own genus status, for which we propose the name 'Candidatus Tisiphia'.", "date": "2022-05-12", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Nature Communications", "volume": "13", "publisher": "Nature Publishing Group", "pagerange": "Art.

", "abstract": "The Hawk-Dove evolutionary game offers a paradigm of the trade-offs associated with aggressive and passive behaviors. When two (or more) populations of players compete, their success or failure is measured by their frequency in the population, and the system is governed by the replicator dynamics. We develop a time-dependent optimal-adaptive control theory for this dynamical system in which the entries of the payoff matrix are dynamically altered to produce control schedules that minimize and maximize the aggressive population through a finite-time cycle. These schedules provide upper and lower bounds on the outcomes for all possible strategies since they represent two extremizers of the cost function. We then adaptively extend the optimal control schedules over multiple cycles to produce absolute maximizers and minimizers for the system.", "date": "2022-01", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Physical Review E", "volume": "105", "number": "1", "publisher": "American Physical Society", "pagerange": "Art.

", "abstract": "How the functions of multicellular organs emerge from the underlying evolution of cell types is poorly understood. We deconstructed evolution of an organ novelty: a rove beetle gland that secretes a defensive cocktail. We show how gland function arose via assembly of two cell types that manufacture distinct compounds. One cell type, comprising a chemical reservoir within the abdomen, produces alkane and ester compounds. We demonstrate that this cell type is a hybrid of cuticle cells and ancient pheromone and adipocyte-like cells, executing its function via a mosaic of enzymes from each parental cell type. The second cell type synthesizes benzoquinones using a chimera of conserved cellular energy and cuticle formation pathways. We show that evolution of each cell type was shaped by coevolution between the two cell types, yielding a potent secretion that confers adaptive value. Our findings illustrate how cooperation between cell types arises, generating new, organ-level behaviors.", "date": "2021-12-09", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Cell", "volume": "184", "number": "25", "publisher": "Cell Press", "pagerange": "6138-6156", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20210517-122046843", "issn": "0092-8674", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20210517-122046843", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Life Sciences Research Foundation" }, { "agency": "Rita Allen Foundation" }, { "agency": "Alfred P.

", "abstract": "Granular excavation is the removal of solid, discrete particles from a structure composed of these objects. Efficiently predicting the stability of an excavation during particle removal is an unsolved and highly nonlinear problem, as the movement of each grain is coupled to its neighbors. Despite this, insects such as ants have evolved to be astonishingly proficient excavators, successfully removing grains such that their tunnels are stable. Currently, it is unclear how ants use their limited information about the environment to construct lasting tunnels. We attempt to unearth the ants' tunneling algorithm by taking three-dimensional (3D) X-ray computed tomographic imaging (XRCT), in real time, of Pogonomyrmex ant tunnel construction. By capturing the location and shape of each grain in the domain, we characterize the relationship between particle properties and ant decision-making within an accurate, virtual recreation of the experiment. We discover that intergranular forces decrease significantly around ant tunnels due to arches forming within the soil. Due to this force relaxation, any grain the ants pick from the tunnel surface will likely be under low stress. Thus, ants avoid removing grains compressed under high forces without needing to be aware of the force network in the surrounding material. Even more, such arches shield tunnels from high forces, providing tunnel robustness. Finally, we observe that ants tend to dig piecewise linearly downward.

", "abstract": "Clavigeritae (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae) comprise a supertribe of specialized myrmecophile rove beetles that display numerous behavioural, chemical and anatomical modifications associated with a socially parasitic lifestyle. Due to the extreme morphological diversity of clavigerites, their systematic relationships, patterns of character evolution and host ant use have been challenging to infer. Here, we resolve deep divergences within Clavigeritae by assembling a molecular dataset encompassing the breadth of tribal diversity. We classify Clavigeritae into six tribes: extinct Protoclavigerini, and recent Tiracerini, Mastigerini sensu nov., Clavigerini sensu nov., Lunillini sensu nov. and Disarthricerini stat. nov. The previously recognized subtribes Clavigerodina, Apoderigerina, Dimerometopina, Hoplitoxenina, Miroclavigerina, Theocerina and Thysdarina are demonstrated as polyphyletic or highly derived internal clades of Clavigerini and are hereby synonymized with the latter. Colilodion \u2013 a highly enigmatic taxon proposed to be the earliest\u2010branching lineage of recent Clavigeritae \u2013 is revealed to be unrelated to Clavigeritae and is transferred to Pselaphitae. We provide a systematic treatment of newly\u2010discovered endemic genera from New Caledonia and infer their phylogenetic affinity to the Australian tribe Tiracerini. The zoogeographic distribution of early\u2010branching Clavigeritae lineages in India and the Australian region indicates a possible Gondwanan origin of the supertribe. Extant clades diversified from the Eocene onwards, correlated with the rise of modern ants. We present evidence for island radiations of Clavigeritae in both Madagascar and New Caledonia during the Oligocene\u2010Miocene. Using a newly\u2010created morphological dataset, we analyse patterns of character evolution and demonstrate widespread convergence in morphology that extends to virtually all traits. Counterintuitively, however, characters postulated to be involved in beetle\u2010ant communication are amongst the most invariant, and least convergent. The host ant spectrum of many Clavigeritae genera and species is broad, contradicting co\u2010cladogenesis with hosts and instead implying widespread host switching. We speculate whether morphological variability in Clavigeritae is truly adaptive, as opposed to the product of 'morphological drift' of body parts under weak selection inside ant colonies, in species with potentially very small effective population sizes.", "date": "2021-04", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Systematic Entomology", "volume": "46", "number": "2", "publisher": "Royal Entomological Society", "pagerange": "422-452", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20210415-125849898", "issn": "0307-6970", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20210415-125849898", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Alfred P.

", "abstract": "The stereotyped dimensions of animal bodies and their component parts result from tight constraints on growth. Yet, the mechanisms that stop growth when organs reach the right size are unknown. Growth of the Drosophila wing\u2014a classic paradigm\u2014is governed by two morphogens, Decapentaplegic (Dpp, a BMP) and Wingless (Wg, a Wnt). Wing growth during larval life ceases when the primordium attains full size, concomitant with the larval-to-pupal molt orchestrated by the steroid hormone ecdysone. Here, we block the molt by genetically dampening ecdysone production, creating an experimental paradigm in which the wing stops growing at the correct size while the larva continues to feed and gain body mass. Under these conditions, we show that wing growth is limited by the ranges of Dpp and Wg, and by ecdysone, which regulates the cellular response to their signaling activities. Further, we present evidence that growth terminates because of the loss of two distinct modes of morphogen action: 1) maintenance of growth within the wing proper and 2) induced growth of surrounding \"pre-wing\" cells and their recruitment into the wing. Our results provide a precedent for the control of organ size by morphogen range and the hormonal gating of morphogen action.", "date": "2020-12-15", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America", "volume": "117", "number": "50", "publisher": "National Academy of Sciences", "pagerange": "31935-31944", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20201201-070314122", "issn": "0027-8424", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20201201-070314122", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Wellcome Trust" }, { "agency": "Ellison Medical Foundation", "grant_number": "AG-SS-2823-11" }, { "agency": "Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI)" }, { "agency": "NIH", "grant_number": "R01 GM113000" }, { "agency": "NIH", "grant_number": "R35 GM127141" } ] }, "local_group": { "items": [ { "id": "Division-of-Biology-and-Biological-Engineering" } ] }, "doi": "10.1073/pnas.2018196117", "primary_object": { "basename": "31935.full.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/g69qv-bbh84/files/31935.full.pdf" }, "related_objects": [ { "basename": "pnas.2018196117.sapp.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/g69qv-bbh84/files/pnas.2018196117.sapp.pdf" } ], "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2020", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph and Struhl, Gary" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/y4pb0-gb955", "eprint_id": 105467, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 23:26:28", "lastmod": "2023-12-22 23:17:18", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" }, { "id": "Rabeling-C", "name": { "family": "Rabeling", "given": "Christian" } } ] }, "title": "Evolution: Shape-Shifting Social Parasites", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "restricted", "note": "\u00a9 2020 Elsevier Inc. \n\nAvailable online 21 September 2020.", "abstract": "Ants exploit differences in body surface chemistry to distinguish nestmates from colony intruders.

", "abstract": "Across the Metazoa, the emergence of new ecological interactions has been enabled by the repeated evolution of exocrine glands. Specialized glands have arisen recurrently and with great frequency, even in single genera or species, transforming how animals interact with their environment through trophic resource exploitation, pheromonal communication, chemical defense and parental care. The widespread convergent evolution of animal glands implies that exocrine secretory cells are a hotspot of metazoan cell type innovation. Each evolutionary origin of a novel gland involves a process of 'gland cell type assembly': the stitching together of unique biosynthesis pathways; coordinated changes in secretory systems to enable efficient chemical release; and transcriptional deployment of these machineries into cells constituting the gland. This molecular evolutionary process influences what types of compound a given species is capable of secreting, and, consequently, the kinds of ecological interactions that species can display. Here, we discuss what is known about the evolutionary assembly of gland cell types and propose a framework for how it may happen. We posit the existence of 'terminal selector' transcription factors that program gland function via regulatory recruitment of biosynthetic enzymes and secretory proteins. We suggest ancestral enzymes are initially co-opted into the novel gland, fostering pleiotropic conflict that drives enzyme duplication. This process has yielded the observed pattern of modular, gland-specific biosynthesis pathways optimized for manufacturing specific secretions. We anticipate that single-cell technologies and gene editing methods applicable in diverse species will transform the study of animal chemical interactions, revealing how gland cell types are assembled and functionally configured at a molecular level.", "date": "2020-02-01", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Journal of Experimental Biology", "volume": "223", "number": "Suppl 1", "publisher": "Company of Biologists", "pagerange": "Art.

We describe a fossil beetle in 99-million-year-old Burmese amber that we infer to have been a social impostor of the earliest-known ant colonies.

Promyrmister reveals that myrmecophiles evolved close to the emergence of ant eusociality, in colonies of stem-group ants that predominate Burmese amber, or with cryptic crown-group ants that remain largely unknown at this time. The clown beetle-ant relationship has been maintained ever since by the beetles host-switching to numerous modern ant genera, ultimately diversifying into one of the largest radiations of symbiotic animals.

Together, Cretobythus + Boreotethys comprise the sister group of modern Bythinini. Despite some external similarities to Recent Bythinini, Cretobythus exhibits several plesiomorphic traits, including a generally flattened body plan, and metacoxae that are positioned close to the ventral midline.

", "abstract": "Recent adaptive radiations provide striking examples of convergence [1\u20134], but the predictability of evolution over much deeper timescales is controversial, with a scarcity of ancient clades exhibiting repetitive patterns of phenotypic evolution [5, 6]. Army ants are ecologically dominant arthropod predators of the world's tropics, with large nomadic colonies housing diverse communities of socially parasitic myrmecophiles [7]. Remarkable among these are many species of rove beetle (Staphylinidae) that exhibit ant-mimicking \"myrmecoid\" body forms and are behaviorally accepted into their aggressive hosts' societies: emigrating with colonies and inhabiting temporary nest bivouacs, grooming and feeding with workers, but also consuming the brood [8\u201311]. Here, we demonstrate that myrmecoid rove beetles are strongly polyphyletic, with this adaptive morphological and behavioral syndrome having evolved at least 12 times during the evolution of a single staphylinid subfamily, Aleocharinae. Each independent myrmecoid clade is restricted to one zoogeographic region and highly host specific on a single army ant genus. Dating estimates reveal that myrmecoid clades are separated by substantial phylogenetic distances\u2014as much as 105 million years. All such groups arose in parallel during the Cenozoic, when army ants diversified into modern genera [12] and rose to ecological dominance [13, 14]. This work uncovers a rare example of an ancient system of complex morphological and behavioral convergence, with replicate beetle lineages following a predictable phenotypic trajectory during their parasitic adaptation to host colonies.", "date": "2017-03-20", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Current Biology", "volume": "27", "number": "6", "publisher": "Cell Press", "pagerange": "920-926", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141851108", "issn": "0960-9822", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141851108", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS)", "grant_number": "22770085" }, { "agency": "Wellcome Trust" }, { "agency": "NIH", "grant_number": "RO1 GM113000" }, { "agency": "Ellison Medical Foundation" } ] }, "doi": "10.1016/j.cub.2017.02.030", "primary_object": { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc2.xlsx", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/49qzf-t0j22/files/1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc2.xlsx" }, "related_objects": [ { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc3.xlsx", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/49qzf-t0j22/files/1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc3.xlsx" }, { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc1.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/49qzf-t0j22/files/1-s2.0-S0960982217301987-mmc1.pdf" } ], "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2017", "author_list": "Maruyama, Munetoshi and Parker, Joseph" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/2vc2w-nb983", "eprint_id": 84315, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 01:09:55", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:06:28", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" } ] }, "title": "Staphylinids", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "restricted", "note": "\u00a9 2016 Elsevier. \n\nAvailable online 24 January 2017.", "abstract": "Staphyli-what?

Predominant among these are the aleocharine rove beetles (Staphylinidae), a vast and ecologically diverse subfamily with numerous morphologically and behaviourally specialized socially parasitic lineages. Here, we report a fossil aleocharine, Mesosymbion compactus gen. et sp. nov., in Burmese amber (\u223c99 million years old), displaying specialized anatomy that is a hallmark of social parasites. Mesosymbion coexisted in the Burmese palaeofauna with stem-group ants and termites that provide the earliest indications of eusociality in both insect groups. We infer that the advent of eusociality led automatically and unavoidably to selection for social parasitism.

", "abstract": "Pselaphinae is an exceptionally species-rich, globally distributed subfamily of minute rove beetles (Staphylinidae), many of which are inquilines of social insects. Deducing the factors that drove pselaphine diversification and their evolutionary predisposition to inquilinism requires a reliable timescale of pselaphine cladogenesis. Pselaphinae is split into a small and highly plesiomorphic supertribe, Faronitae, and its sister group, the 'higher Pselaphinae' \u2013 a vast multi-tribe clade with a more derived morphological ground plan, and which includes all known instances of inquilinism. The higher Pselaphinae is dominated by tribes with a Gondwanan taxonomic bias. However, a minority of tribes are limited to the Nearctic and Palearctic ecozones, implying a potentially older, Pangaean origin of the higher Pselaphinae as a whole. Here, I describe fossils from mid-Cretaceous (\u223c99 million years old) Burmese amber that confirm the existence of crown-group higher pselaphines on the Eurasian supercontinent prior to contact with Gondwanan landmasses. Protrichonyx rafifrons gen. et sp.n. is placed incertae sedis within the higher Pselaphinae. Boreotethys gen.n., erected for B. grimaldii sp.n. and B. arctopteryx sp.n., represents an extinct sister taxon and putative stem group of Bythinini, a Recent tribe with a primarily Holarctic distribution. The Laurasian palaeolocality of the newly described taxa implies that higher pselaphines are indeed probably of Jurassic, Pangaean extraction and that the Laurasian-Gondwanan tribal dichotomy of this clade may have developed vicariantly following Pangaean rifting.

", "abstract": "Socially parasitic myrmecophily has evolved numerous times in arthropods, but myrmecophilous lineages are non-randomly distributed across phylogeny. Evolution of this way of life is heavily biased towards the Coleoptera, within this order towards rove beetles (Staphylinidae), and within rove beetles to two subfamilies. Here, I provide an overview of the diversity of myrmecophilous beetles and discuss advances in comprehending their biology, systematics, and evolution. I address possible factors underlying the skewed phylogenetic distribution of myrmecophily across the Coleoptera. Accounting for this trend requires knowledge of ancestral ecologies and phenotypic attributes in clades where taxa are predisposed to undergo the evolutionary transition from free-living to myrmecophilous. Clades that are primitively predatory, small in body size, and possess defensive strategies, either physical or chemical, that permit some degree of protection from policing worker ants, appear to be preadapted to evolve myrmecophily repeatedly. I propose that the mode of colony exploitation employed during the initial phase of evolution, combined with the potential evolvability of the body plan, has important consequences for subsequent evolutionary steps: These parameters influence if and how different taxa undergo specialisation to colony life and the mechanisms the most advanced myrmecophiles employ to achieve social integration. Myrmecophily is a paradigm of intricate symbiosis, which in certain clades of beetles evolves recurrently from an ancestral preadaptive ground state and follows a relatively predictable phenotypic trajectory. These clades are potentially powerful systems to explore the evolution and mechanistic bases of symbiotic relationships in animals.", "date": "2016-02", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Myrmecological News", "volume": "22", "publisher": "\u00d6sterreichische Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Entomofaunistik", "pagerange": "65-108", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141912656", "issn": "1994-4136", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141912656", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "primary_object": { "basename": "mn22_65-108_printable.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/rrzcw-js112/files/mn22_65-108_printable.pdf" }, "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2016", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/bwdzm-bts47", "eprint_id": 84312, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-20 08:29:12", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:06:18", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" }, { "id": "Struhl-G", "name": { "family": "Struhl", "given": "Gary" } } ] }, "title": "Scaling the Drosophila Wing: TOR-Dependent Target Gene Access by the Hippo Pathway Transducer Yorkie", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "public", "note": "\u00a9 2015 Parker, Struhl.

", "abstract": "Organ growth is controlled by patterning signals that operate locally (e.g., Wingless/Ints [Wnts], Bone Morphogenetic Proteins [BMPs], and Hedgehogs [Hhs]) and scaled by nutrient-dependent signals that act systemically (e.g., Insulin-like peptides [ILPs] transduced by the Target of Rapamycin [TOR] pathway). How cells integrate these distinct inputs to generate organs of the appropriate size and shape is largely unknown. The transcriptional coactivator Yorkie (Yki, a YES-Associated Protein, or YAP) acts downstream of patterning morphogens and other tissue-intrinsic signals to promote organ growth. Yki activity is regulated primarily by the Warts/Hippo (Wts/Hpo) tumour suppressor pathway, which impedes nuclear access of Yki by a cytoplasmic tethering mechanism. Here, we show that the TOR pathway regulates Yki by a separate and novel mechanism in the Drosophila wing. Instead of controlling Yki nuclear access, TOR signaling governs Yki action after it reaches the nucleus by allowing it to gain access to its target genes. When TOR activity is inhibited, Yki accumulates in the nucleus but is sequestered from its normal growth-promoting target genes\u2014a phenomenon we term \"nuclear seclusion.\" Hence, we posit that in addition to its well-known role in stimulating cellular metabolism in response to nutrients, TOR also promotes wing growth by liberating Yki from nuclear seclusion, a parallel pathway that we propose contributes to the scaling of wing size with nutrient availability.", "date": "2015-10", "date_type": "published", "publication": "PLoS Biology", "volume": "13", "number": "10", "publisher": "Public Library of Science", "pagerange": "Art.

", "abstract": "Myrmecophiles\u2014species that depend on ant societies\u2014include some of the most morphologically and behaviorally specialized animals known [1]. Remarkable adaptive characters enable these creatures to bypass fortress-like security, integrate into colony life, and exploit abundant resources and protection inside ant nests [2, 3]. Such innovations must result from intimate coevolution with hosts, but a scarcity of definitive fossil myrmecophiles obscures when and how this lifestyle arose. Here, we report the earliest known morphologically specialized and apparently obligate myrmecophile, in Early Eocene (\u223c52 million years old) Cambay amber from India. Protoclaviger trichodens gen. et sp. nov. is a stem-group member of Clavigeritae, a speciose supertribe of pselaphine rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) heavily modified for myrmecophily via reduced mouthparts for trophallaxis with worker ants, brush-like trichomes that exude appeasement compounds, and fusions of many body and antennal segments [4, 5]. Protoclaviger captures a transitional stage in the evolutionary development of this novel body plan, most evident in its still-distinct abdominal tergites. The Cambay paleobiota marks one of the first occurrences in the fossil record of a significant presence of modern ants [6]. Protoclaviger reveals that sophisticated social parasites were nest intruders throughout, and probably before, the ascent of ants to ecological dominance, with ancient groups such as Clavigeritae primed to radiate as their hosts became increasingly ubiquitous.", "date": "2014-10-20", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Current Biology", "volume": "24", "number": "20", "publisher": "Cell Press", "pagerange": "2428-2434", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141849572", "issn": "0960-9822", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141849572", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Wellcome Trust" }, { "agency": "http://www.petridish.org/projects/deceiving-the-superorganism-ant-exploiting-beetles" }, { "agency": "Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI)" }, { "agency": "Ellison Medical Foundation" }, { "agency": "Constantine Niarchos Foundation" } ] }, "doi": "10.1016/j.cub.2014.08.068", "primary_object": { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc1.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/4vceb-62t27/files/1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc1.pdf" }, "related_objects": [ { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc2.xlsx", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/4vceb-62t27/files/1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc2.xlsx" }, { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc3.mp4", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/4vceb-62t27/files/1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc3.mp4" }, { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc4.mp4", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/4vceb-62t27/files/1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc4.mp4" }, { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc5.mp4", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/4vceb-62t27/files/1-s2.0-S0960982214011427-mmc5.mp4" } ], "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2014", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph and Grimaldi, David A." }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/vt2mx-sg643", "eprint_id": 84308, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 23:12:36", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:05:59", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" } ] }, "title": "Morphogenia: a new genus of the Neotropical tribe Jubini (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Pselaphinae) from the Brazilian Amazon", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "public", "keywords": "Pselaphinae, Jubini, Neotropical, Brazil, new genus, new species", "note": "\u00a9 2014 Joseph Parker.

However, unlike Barrojuba, Morphogenia retains a plesiomorphic antebasal sulcus on the pronotum in both sexes, and additionally lacks elaborate abdominal fovea-like pockets and teeth on the lateral margins of the pronotum that are typical of Barrojuba. The genus is also unusual among jubine genera in lacking the characteristic V- or Y-shaped gular carina.

The new taxon is amongst the largest pselaphine species known. Its transverse head implies an affinity with Trogastrini (Pselaphinae: Euplectitae), but J. towai lacks typical characters diagnostic for trogastrines and possesses others, such as a Jubini-like pronotum and equally-sized tarsal claws, that obscure its systematic relationships. To place J. towai phylogenetically, we sequenced a fragment of 28s rDNA for the new species and a range of other pselaphines, including members of Trogastrini and other tribes of Euplectitae. The topology produced by this analysis supports the inclusion of Jubogaster in Trogastrini, thereby indicating that morphology within this tribe can be more malleable than previously thought. Many of the largest pselaphine taxa are guests of social insect colonies. We discuss whether an evolutionary correlation (or causal relationship) exists between body enlargement and an inquilinous lifestyle in Pselaphinae.", "date": "2013-03-20", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Zootaxa", "volume": "3630", "number": "2", "publisher": "Magnolia Press", "pagerange": "369-378", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141849813", "issn": "1175-5326", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141849813", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "doi": "10.11646/zootaxa.3630.2.11", "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2013", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph and Maruyama, Munetoshi" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/8pmff-e5c37", "eprint_id": 84307, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 06:26:48", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:05:55", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" } ] }, "title": "Morphogens, nutrients, and the basis of organ scaling", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "restricted", "note": "\u00a9 2011 Wiley. \n\nI thank Peter Lawrence, Ricardo Neto-Silva, Richard Poole, Gary Struhl, Andrew Tomlinson, and two anonymous reviewers for their critical reading of this manuscript.

Studies in this area have shown that organ-intrinsic patterning morphogens influence organ size, guiding growth in accordance with positional information. However, organ-extrinsic humoral factors such as insulin also affect organ size, synchronizing growth with nutrient levels. Proliferating cells must integrate instructions from morphogens with those from nutrition so that growth proceeds as a function of both inputs. Coordinating cell proliferation with morphogens and nutrients ensures organs scale appropriately with body size, but the basis of this coordination is unclear. Here, the problem is illustrated using the Drosophila wing\u2014a paradigm for organ growth and size control\u2014and a potential solution suggested.", "date": "2011-05", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Evolution & Development", "volume": "13", "number": "3", "publisher": "Wiley", "pagerange": "304-314", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141848562", "issn": "1520-541X", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180112-141848562", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Wellcome Trust" } ] }, "doi": "10.1111/j.1525-142X.2011.00481.x", "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2011", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/ydza6-1z388", "eprint_id": 84350, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 18:46:10", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:08:59", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" } ] }, "title": "Control of Compartment Size by an EGF Ligand from Neighboring Cells", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "public", "note": "\u00a9 2006 Elsevier Ltd. \n\nReceived 20 December 2005, Revised 24 August 2006, Accepted 24 August 2006, Available online 23 October 2006. \n\nI am extremely grateful for the wonderful support I received from Peter Lawrence throughout the course of this study.

", "abstract": "Insect bodies are subdivided into anterior (A) and posterior (P) compartments: cohesive fields of distinct cell lineage and cell affinity [1]. Like organs in many animal species, compartments can develop to normal sizes despite considerable variation in cell division [2, 3]. This implies that overall compartment dimensions are subject to genetic control, but the mechanisms are unknown. Here, studying Drosophila's embryonic segments, I show that P compartment dimensions depend on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. I suggest the primary activating ligand is Spitz, emanating from neighboring A compartment cells. Spi/EGFR activity stimulates P compartment cell enlargement and survival, but evidence is presented that Spitz is secreted in limited amounts, so that increasing the number of cells within the P compartment causes the per-cell Spitz level to drop. This leads to compensatory apoptosis and cell-size reductions that preserve compartment dimensions. Conversely, I propose that lowering P compartment cell numbers enhances per-cell Spitz availability; this increases cell survival and cell size, again safeguarding compartment size. The results argue that the gauging of P compartment size is due, at least in part, to cells surviving and growing according to Spi availability. These data offer mechanistic insight into how diffusible molecules control organ size.", "date": "2006-10-24", "date_type": "published", "publication": "Current Biology", "volume": "16", "number": "20", "publisher": "Cell Press", "pagerange": "2058-2065", "id_number": "CaltechAUTHORS:20180116-161339081", "issn": "0960-9822", "official_url": "https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20180116-161339081", "rights": "No commercial reproduction, distribution, display or performance rights in this work are provided.", "funders": { "items": [ { "agency": "Medical Research Council (UK)" }, { "agency": "NIH", "grant_number": "HD42770" } ] }, "doi": "10.1016/j.cub.2006.08.092", "primary_object": { "basename": "1-s2.0-S0960982206022056-mmc1.pdf", "url": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/ydza6-1z388/files/1-s2.0-S0960982206022056-mmc1.pdf" }, "resource_type": "article", "pub_year": "2006", "author_list": "Parker, Joseph" }, { "id": "https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/1927s-xqe27", "eprint_id": 84338, "eprint_status": "archive", "datestamp": "2023-08-19 18:24:33", "lastmod": "2023-10-18 16:08:01", "type": "article", "metadata_visibility": "show", "creators": { "items": [ { "id": "Parker-J", "name": { "family": "Parker", "given": "Joseph" }, "orcid": "0000-0001-9598-2454" }, { "id": "Johnston-L-A", "name": { "family": "Johnston", "given": "Laura A." } } ] }, "title": "The proximate determinants of insect size", "ispublished": "pub", "full_text_status": "public", "note": "\u00a9 2006 BioMed Central Ltd. \n\nPublished: 2 August 2006.\n\nPublished - jbiol47.pdf
