Trotz starker Selektion konnten sich unterschiedliche Lockstoffe verschiedener Mottenarten entwickeln. Eine genetische Variation kann sogar innerhalb einer Art bestehen. Zum Teil ist diese auch für die Evolution von Unterschieden zwischen Arten verantwortlich.

It’s becoming warmer on Earth. Temperatures during the period spanning 2001 to 2010, for example, were around 0.2 degrees Celsius higher than the previous decade. No serious scientist doubts that humans play a decisive role here. Nevertheless, other factors also influence the global climate, for example the geometry of Earth’s orbit and volcanic eruptions. But what role does the Sun play?

Parasites exist not only in the plant and animal kingdoms, they are also a part of us. Our genome contains myriad short stretches of DNA that propagate at the genome’s expense. For this reason, these transposons, as they are called, are also referred to as parasitic DNA. Oliver Weichenrieder from the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen wants to shed light on the processes by which transposons are copied – not only because they can cause disease, but also because they may be an important engine of evolution.
If they occur frequently, the assembly line can falter and stutter.
