Evolution of Phospholipase A2 in Bees and Flies

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study investigated the evolution of the PLA2 gene in bees and flies and compared the evolutionary rate between them, which denotes the toxic group and the non‐toxic group. The results showed that PLA2 was under purifying selection and that an accelerated evolution of PLA2 occurred in the toxic group when compared with the non‐toxic group ...
