Entropic contribution to phenotype fitness
Pablo Catalán, Juan Antonio García-Martín, Jacobo Aguirre +2
All possible phenotypes are not equally accessible to evolving populations. In fact, only phenotypes of large size, i.e. those resulting from many different genotypes, are found in…
The resumption of sports competitions after COVID-19 lockdown: The case of the Spanish football league
Javier M. Buldú, Daniel R. Antequera, Jacobo Aguirre
In this work, we present a stochastic discrete-time SEIR (Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered) model adapted to describe the propagation of COVID-19 during a football tourname…
From genotypes to organisms: State-of-the-art and perspectives of a cornerstone in evolutionary dynamics
Susanna Manrubia, José A. Cuesta, Jacobo Aguirre +15
Understanding how genotypes map onto phenotypes, fitness, and eventually organisms is arguably the next major missing piece in a fully predictive theory of evolution. We refer to t…
Epistasis between cultural traits drives paradigm shifts in cultural evolution
Ignacio Pascual, Jacobo Aguirre, Susanna Manrubia +1
Every now and then the cultural paradigm of a society changes. Human history can be regarded as a sequence of long periods of cultural stasis punctuated by paradigm shifts that tra…
On the networked architecture of genotype spaces and its critical effects on molecular evolution
Jacobo Aguirre, Pablo Catalán, José A. Cuesta +1
Evolutionary dynamics is often viewed as a subtle process of change accumulation that causes a divergence among organisms and their genomes. However, this interpretation is an inhe…
A read-filtering algorithm for high-throughput marker-gene studies that greatly improves OTU accuracy
Fernando Puente-Sánchez, Jacobo Aguirre, Víctor Parro
Adequate read filtering is critical when processing high-throughput data in marker-gene-based studies. Sequencing errors can cause the mis-clustering of otherwise similar reads, ar…
Successful strategies for competing networks
Jacobo Aguirre, David Papo, Javier M. Buldú
Competitive interactions represent one of the driving forces behind evolution and natural selection in biological and sociological systems. For example, animals in an ecosystem may…
The struggle for space: Viral extinction through competition for cells
Jose A. Cuesta, Jacobo Aguirre, Jose A. Capitan +1
The design of protocols to suppress the propagation of viral infections is an enduring enterprise, especially hindered by limited knowledge of the mechanisms through which extincti…
