Global urban environmental change drives adaptation in white clover

Urbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6169 populations in 160 cities globally. Plants were assayed for a Mendelian antiherbivore defense that also affects tolerance to abiotic stressors. Urban-rural gradients were associated with the evolution of clines in defense in 47% of cities throughout the world. Variation in the strength of clines was explained by environmental changes in drought stress and vegetation cover that varied among cities. Sequencing 2074 genomes from 26 cities revealed that the evolution of urban-rural clines was best explained by adaptive evolution, but the degree of parallel adaptation varied among cities. Our results demonstrate that urbanization leads to adaptation at a global scale

Melodrama egípcio: uma tecnologia do sujeito moderno?<A NAME="suptitulo"></A> Egyptian melodrama technology of the modern subject?

Considero bastante evidente que os textos melodramáticos podem atuar sobre os espectadores de vários modos. Não podemos simplesmente analisar as mensagens explícitas da trama e dos personagens, assim como não devemos nos limitar ao estudo da recepção. O que pretendo explorar neste ensaio, entretanto, é como a representação da emoção dos personagens no melodrama egípcio pode fornecer um modelo para um novo tipo de sujeito individualizado. A análise considera os objetivos dos produtores e escritores dos seriados televisivos, assim como a convivência de uma empregada doméstica com estes conteúdos.<br>I think it is abundantly clear thar melodramatic texts can work on viewers in multiple ways. One cannot simply analyze the overt messages of plot and character, just as one should not limit oneself to the study of reception. What I want explore in this essay, however, is how the representation of characters' emotions in Egyptian melodrama might provide a model for a new kind of individuated subject. The analyses is based on the objectives of TV series writers and producers, and on a domestic servant lived experience interacting with such content
