Chromosome-scale genome assembly of the brown anole (Anolis sagrei), an emerging model species [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2022 A highly-complete chromosome-scale genome assembly of the brown anole, Anolis sagrei, provides insight into the evolution of sex chromosomes and is a crucial resource for this model lizard species.

Establishment of brown anoles (Anolis sagrei) across a southern California county and potential interactions with a native lizard species [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 The brown anole, Anolis sagrei, is a native species to the Caribbean; however, A. sagrei has invaded multiple parts of the USA, including Florida, Louisiana, Hawai’i and more recently California. The biological impacts of A.

Ontogenetic Change in Male Expression of Testosterone-Responsive Genes Contributes to the Emergence of Sex-Biased Gene Expression in Anolis sagrei [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Sex differences in gene expression tend to increase with age across a variety of species, often coincident with the development of sexual dimorphism and maturational changes in hormone levels. However, because most transcriptome-wide characterizations of

Intersexual chemo-sensation in a “visually-oriented” lizard, Anolis sagrei [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 While the conspicuous visual displays of anoles have been studied in great depth, the possibility that these lizards may also interact through chemical signalling has received hardly any consideration.

Serotonergic activation during courtship and aggression in the brown anole, Anolis sagrei [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The role of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) in social behavior regulation is not fully understood. While 5-HT release in nuclei of the social behavior network has generally been associated with inhibition of aggressive behavior across multiple ...

A novel body coloration phenotype in Anolis sagrei: Implications for physiology, fitness, and predation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 In animals, color signals that convey information about quality are often associated with costs linked to the expression of coloration and may therefore be honest signals of sender quality. Honest indicators are often seen in sexual signals that are used

Observing character displacement from process to pattern in a novel vertebrate community [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsEcological character displacement, whereby shifts in resource use in the presence of competing species leads to adaptive evolutionary divergence, is widely considered an important process in community assembly and adaptive radiation.

Sonic hedgehog and fibroblast growth factor 8 regulate the evolution of amniote facial proportions [PDF]
Communications BiologyAmniote skulls are diverse in shape and skeletal composition, which is the basis of much adaptive diversification within this clade. Major differences in skull shape are established early in development, at a critical developmental interval spanning the ...
