Long‐Term Maintenance of Complex Chromosomal Inversion Polymorphism in Drosophila mediopunctata
It has become increasingly clear that natural selection favors haplotypes that draw functionally related genes together, often targeting mechanisms that control recombination rates. In this paper, we show that the long‐term maintenance of linkage disequilibrium between linked non‐overlapping chromosomal inversions in a Drosophila species may arise from

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 ...

Mitochondrial carrier homologs 1 (MTCH1) and 2 (MTCH2) are outer mitochondrial membrane translocases related to inner membrane carriers. In humans, MTCH1 interacts with presenilin 1 and induces apoptosis upon overexpression. We show here that the Drosophila ortholog is required for development, inducing apoptosis upon its downregulation both in the ...

Evolution of the sugar receptors in insects
Background Perception of sugars is an invaluable ability for insects which often derive quickly accessible energy from these molecules. A distinctive subfamily of eight proteins within the gustatory receptor (Gr) family has been identified as sugar ...

A carboxylesterase, Esterase-6, modulates sensory physiological and behavioral response dynamics to pheromone in Drosophila [PDF]
Conclusions: Our study presents evidence that Est-6 plays a role in the physiological and behavioral dynamics of sex pheromone response in Drosophila males and supports a role of Est-6 as an odorant-degrading enzyme (ODE) in male antennae.
