The spontaneous mutation rate of Drosophila pseudoobscura. [PDF]
Abstract The spontaneous mutation rate is a very variable trait that is subject to drift, selection and is sometimes highly plastic. Consequently, its variation between close species, or even between populations from the same species, can be very large.

Ancestral polymorphisms in Drosophila pseudoobscura and Drosophila miranda [PDF]
Ancestral polymorphisms are defined as variants that arose by mutation prior to the speciation event that generated the species in which they segregate. Their presence may complicate the interpretation of molecular data and lead to incorrect phylogenetic

In vivo RNAi rescue in Drosophila melanogaster with genomic transgenes from Drosophila pseudoobscura. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Systematic, large-scale RNA interference (RNAi) approaches are very valuable to systematically investigate biological processes in cell culture or in tissues of organisms such as Drosophila.

The heritability of mating behaviour in a fly and its plasticity in response to the threat of sperm competition. [PDF]
Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which animals can cope with rapidly changeable environments, but the evolutionary lability of such plasticity remains unclear.

A multispecies approach for comparing sequence evolution of X-linked and autosomal sites in Drosophila [PDF]
Population genetics models show that, under certain conditions, the X chromosome is expected to be under more efficient selection than the autosomes.

Zinc finger binding motifs do not explain recombination rate variation within or between species of Drosophila. [PDF]
In humans and mice, the Cys(2)His(2) zinc finger protein PRDM9 binds to a DNA sequence motif enriched in hotspots of recombination, possibly modifying nucleosomes, and recruiting recombination machinery to initiate Double Strand Breaks (DSBs).

Mating system variation drives rapid evolution of the female transcriptome in Drosophila pseudoobscura. [PDF]
This research was part funded by the Natural Environment Research Council, Grant Number: NE/I014632/1. The APC was paid through RCUK open access block grant funds.Interactions between the sexes are believed to be a potent source of selection on sex ...

Odorant receptor (Or) genes: polymorphism and divergence in the D. melanogaster and D. pseudoobscura lineages. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In insects, like in most invertebrates, olfaction is the principal sensory modality, which provides animals with essential information for survival and reproduction.

Aspectos del polimorfismo genético en Drosophila pseudoobscura, D. willistoni y D. nebulosa Aspects of genetic polymorphism in Drosophila pseudoobscura, D. willistoni and D. nebulosa [PDF]
En México el polimorfismo cromosómico en poblaciones naturales de Drosophila se estudió en D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni y D. nebulosa. En la primera, más ampliamente analizada, se reconocen 27 inversiones correspondientes al 67.5% de la variabilidad ...
