Evolution of sex-biased genes in Drosophila species with neo-sex chromosomes: Potential contribution to reducing the sexual conflict. [PDF]
In theory, having sex chromosomes is advantageous to reduce sexual conflict. Our analyses revealed that many genes have acquired the sex‐biased expression on the neo‐sex chromosomes particularly at the larval stage. Our study indicates that cryptic sexual conflict at the preadult stages cannot be ignored, and some of these conflicts may have been ...

Paralog-Dependent Specialization of Paf1C Subunit, Ctr9, for Sex Chromosome Gene Regulation and Male Germline Differentiation in Drosophila. [PDF]
We show that Drosophila melanogaster genome maintains testis‐specific paralogs encoding components of the transcription regulator Paf1C. One of the paralog products, Ctr9t, forms a unique compartment within the spermatocyte nucleolus. Ctr9t acts as a suppressor of X chromosome genes and an activator of Y chromosome fertility genes, thereby ensuring ...

Transcriptomic Analysis and Comparative Analysis of Gene Families Related to Environmental Adaptation in Two Grylloblattodea Species: Galloisiana sinensis and Grylloprimevala jilina [PDF]
Notoptera, a singular ancient insect lineage, is vital for exploring insect environmental adaptation, evolution, and its geological history link, recognized as a national first‐class protected animal. Comparing environmental adaptation genes in Galloisiana sinensis and Grylloprimevala jilina, closely related yet habitat‐disparate species, illuminates ...
