Any antagonistic interaction has the potential of favouring sex, just as predicted by the "Red Queen hypothesis" in the case of host-parasite interactions. Is it really the case?

Despite the advances in genome sequencing and assembly, detailed annotation of plant genomes is now a bottleneck in genomic analysis and an impediment to realizing the full potential of genome editing for crop improvement.

Rubisco is a critical enzyme in the carbon fixation reactions of photosynthesis, however it is catalytically slow and non-specific.

Reproductive success is strongly related to the display of extravagant sexual traits, such as the striking coloration of some bird species.

By 2050, food production may need to increase by up to 70% in order to feed a global population of an estimated 9.7 billion people.
