Chromosomal rearrangements as a source of local adaptation in island Drosophila

no code implementations20 Sep 2021 Brandon A. Turner, Theresa R. Miorin, Nicholas B. Stewart, Robert W. Reid, Cathy C. Moore, Rebekah L. Rogers

In D. santomea 468 mutations are associated with strong signals of differentiation from the mainland while in island D yakuba we identify 383 candidates of local adaptation.

New gene formation in hybrid Drosophila

no code implementations17 Aug 2021 Rebekah L. Rogers, Cathy C. Moore, Nicholas B. Stewart

We observe "bursts" of new gene creation in F1 hybrids of D. yakuba and D. santomea, a species complex known to hybridize in nature.

Gene family amplification facilitates adaptation in freshwater Unionid bivalve Megalonaias nervosa

no code implementations1 Aug 2020 Rebekah L. Rogers, Stephanie L. Grizzard, James E. Titus-McQuillan, Katherine Bockrath, Sagar Patel, John P. Wares, Jeffrey T. Garner, Cathy C. Moore

With advances in genome sequencing it is possible to gain a broader view of how gene family proliferation and TE content evolve in non-model species when populations become threatened.
