PLoS Biology

PLoS Biology - www.plosbiology.org


The new PLoS Biology is out; as usual, great stuff. I haven't looked in detail at much of it, but at first overview, these seemed particularly notable:

* Spotting Signs of Natural Selection and the paper of which it is a synopsis

* Natural Biodiversity Breaks Plant Yield Barriers and Diversifying Selection in Plant Breeding

* Nature's Nanotechnologists, on diatoms

* Why Are So Many Bird Flowers Red? which is the Unsolved Mystery feature

* Hearing: Travelling Wave or Resonance?

* Breaking Down the Stereotypes of Science

PLoS Medicine comes out next week.
