New Phytologist, Volume 242, Issue 6, Page 2872-2887, June 2024.Summary In the Vetrix clade of Salix, a genus of woody flowering plants, sex determination involves chromosome 15, but an XY system has changed to a ZW system. We studied the detailed genetic changes involved. We used genome sequencing, with chromosome conformation capture (Hi‐C) and PacBio HiFi reads to assemble chromosome level gap‐free X and Y of ...

Recent sex chromosome divergence despite ancient dioecy in the willow Salix viminalis. [PDF]
, 2017 Sex chromosomes can evolve when recombination is halted between a pair of chromosomes, and this can lead to degeneration of the sex-limited chromosome.

Saltational Episodes of Reticulate Evolution in the Drosophila saltans Species Group
bioRxivPhylogenomics reveals reticulate evolution to be widespread across taxa, but whether reticulation is due to low statistical power or it is a true evolutionary pattern remains a field of investigation.

Nature, 1985 The biological properties of the P element of Drosophila melanogaster differ from those of other mobile elements in this genus in that its mobility is associated with dysgenic traits that might be expected to limit its distribution or spread1.

Insights into the evolution of herbivory from a leaf‐mining fly
Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2024.Abstract Herbivorous insects and their host plants comprise most known species on Earth. Illuminating how herbivory repeatedly evolved in insects from nonherbivorous lineages is critical to understanding how this biodiversity is created and maintained.

Molecular evolution of the Amy multigenes in the subgenus Sophophora of Drosophila.
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 ...

Bacteria and viruses and their role in the preschool wheeze to asthma transition
Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2024.Abstract Wheezing is the cardinal symptom of asthma; its presence early in life, mostly caused by viral infections, is a major risk factor for the establishment of persistent or recurrent disease. Early‐life wheezing and asthma exacerbations are triggered by common respiratory viruses, mainly rhinoviruses (RV), and to a lesser extent, respiratory ...

Examining the associations between a generalist feeder and a highly toxic host
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.We used a variety of behavioral assays to assess the association between a generalist feeder and a highly toxic host fungus. Our results suggest that access to a resource with lower competition may help to maintain this association. Abstract Understanding the often antagonistic plant–herbivore interactions and how host defenses can influence herbivore ...

Anchored phylogenomics and revised classification of the Miltogramminae (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)
Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 138-155, January 2024.Anchored hybrid enrichment facilitates the creation of a highly supported phylogenetic hypothesis for the Miltogramminae containing 60% of the currently recognised genera from all biogeographic regions except the Neotropical. The new phylogeny tree facilitates a complete revision of the subfamily including the synonymisation of several genera ...
