Molecular Evolution of the Amy Multigenes in the Subgenus Sophophora of Drosophila [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 1997 Molecular evolution of the Amy multigenes in Drosophila was investigated using PCR amplification. Twenty-five partial Amy sequences from 13 species belonging mainly to the subgenus Sophophora were determine, and a molecular phylogeny of the Amy genes in Drosophila was constructed, together with published Amy sequences.

The origin of chromosomal inversions as a source of segmental duplications in the Sophophora subgenus of Drosophila [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractChromosomal inversions can contribute to the adaptation of organisms to their environment by capturing particular advantageous allelic combinations of a set of genes included in the inverted fragment and also by advantageous functional changes due to the inversion process itself that might affect not only the expression of flanking genes but ...

Adaptive radiation in the subgenus Scaptodrosophila of Australian Drosophila [PDF]
Nature, 1975 UNTIL a recent survey, based on the two major museum collections of Australia1, the Australian Drosophila fauna was poorly known and few endemic species had been described. This survey covered 81 species including 40 described as new. The world total of Drosophila species is known to exceed 1,250 (ref.

CHROMOSOMAL EVOLUTION OF ELEMENTS B AND C IN THE SOPHOPHORA SUBGENUS OF DROSOPHILA: EVOLUTIONARY RATE AND POLYMORPHISM [PDF]
Evolution, 2006 The locations of 77 markers along the chromosomal elements B (41 markers) and C (36 markers) of Drosophila subobscura, D. pseudoobscura, and D. melanogaster were obtained by in situ hybridization on polytene chromosomes. In comparisons between D. subobscura and D.

Evolution of a pest: towards the complete neuroethology of Drosophila suzukii and the subgenus Sophophora [PDF]
, 2019 Comparative analysis of multiple genomes has been used extensively to examine the evolution of chemosensory receptors across the genus Drosophila. However, few studies have delved into functional characteristics, as most have relied exclusively on genomic data alone, especially for non-model species.

Immune genes and divergent antimicrobial peptides in flies of the subgenus Drosophila [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2016 Drosophila is an important model for studying the evolution of animal immunity, due to the powerful genetic tools developed for D. melanogaster. However, Drosophila is an incredibly speciose lineage with a wide range of ecologies, natural histories, and diverse natural enemies.

Lek behaviour in three species of the subgenus Hirtodrosophila of Australian Drosophila [PDF]
Nature, 1977 LEK behaviour, or the use of courting territories, is well known in the patterned wing, Hawaiian species of the subgenus Drosophila, but not elsewhere in the genus1. Australian Drosophila comprise a major adaptive radiation in the subgenus Scaptodrosophila, and minor radiations in Hirtodrosophila and Sophophora2,3.

Concurrent duplication of the Cid and Cenp-C genes in the Drosophila subgenus with signatures of subfunctionalization and male germline-biased expression [PDF]
, 2017 AbstractDespite their essential role in the process of chromosome segregation in eukaryotes, kinetochore proteins are highly diverse across species, being lost, duplicated, created, or diversified during evolution. Based on comparative genomics, the duplication of the inner kinetochore proteins CenH3 and Cenp-C, which are interdependent in their roles ...
