Ecology and evolution

Sheftel H, Shoval O, Mayo A, Alon U.
PMID: 23789060
Ecol Evol. 2013 Jun;3(6):1471-83. doi: 10.1002/ece3.528. Epub 2013 Apr 17.

When organisms perform a single task, selection leads to phenotypes that maximize performance at that task. When organisms need to perform multiple tasks, a trade-off arises because no phenotype can optimize all tasks. Recent work addressed this question, and...

BACKGROUND: Liver vitamin A (VA) concentration is the gold standard for VA status, but is not routinely accessible. Adipose tissue VA concentrations, as retinol and retinyl esters, may be correlated to liver VA. α-VA (as α-retinol) is a cleavage...
