DrosOCB: a high resolution map of conserved non coding sequences in Drosophila [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Comparative genomics methods are widely used to aid the functional annotation of non coding DNA regions. However, aligning non coding sequences requires new algorithms and strategies, in order to take into account extensive rearrangements and turnover during evolution.

The genetics of speciation by reinforcement [PDF]
, 2005 Reinforcement occurs when natural selection strengthens behavioral discrimination to prevent costly interpopulation matings, such as when matings produce sterile hybrids.

Transcript length mediates developmental timing of gene expression across Drosophila [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 The time required to transcribe genes with long primary transcripts may limit their ability to be expressed in cells with short mitotic cycles, a phenomenon termed intron delay. As such short cycles are a hallmark of the earliest stages of insect development, we used Drosophila developmental timecourse expression data to test whether intron delay ...

Effects of Inversions on Within- and Between-Species Recombination and Divergence [PDF]
, 2011 Chromosomal inversions disrupt recombination in heterozygotes by both reducing crossing-over within inverted regions and increasing it elsewhere in the genome.

Rate and cost of adaptation in the Drosophila Genome [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Recent studies have consistently inferred high rates of adaptive molecular evolution between Drosophila species. At the same time, the Drosophila genome evolves under different rates of recombination, which results in partial genetic linkage between alleles at neighboring genomic loci. Here we analyze how linkage correlations affect adaptive evolution.
