Recent evolution of large offspring size and post-fertilization nutrient provisioning in swordtails

C. Y. Payne, D. Ly, R. A. Rodriguez-Soto, D. L. Powell, N. D. Robles, T. R. Gunn, J. J. Baczenas, A. J. Bergman, A. C. Pollock, B. M. Moran, J. C. Baker, D. Reznick, M. Schumer

This study compares reproductive strategies between two swordtail fish species, finding that X. malinche produces larger, more resilient offspring through extended post-fertilization nutrient provisioning.

Pervasive gene flow despite strong and varied reproductive barriers in swordtails

S. M. Aguillon, S. K. Haase Cox, Q. K. Langdon, T. R. Gunn, J. J. Baczenas, S. M. Banerjee, A. E. Donny, B. M. Moran, C. Gutierrez-Rodriguez, O. Rios-Cardenas, M. R. Morris, D. L. Powell, M. Schumer

This study shows that despite strong reproductive barriers, gene flow is pervasive between closely related swordtail fish species through hybridization and genetic incompatibilities.

Complex hybridization between deeply diverged fish species in a disturbed ecosystem

S. M. Banerjee, D. L. Powell, B. M. Moran, W. F. Ramirez-Duarte, Q. K. Langdon, T. R. Gunn, G. Vazquez, C. Rochman, M. Schumer

The paper develops a tool for ancestry inference in three-way hybrids and reports a complex hybridization event between three swordtail fish species linked to anthropogenic disturbance.

A Lethal Genetic Incompatibility between Naturally Hybridizing Species in Mitochondrial Complex I

B. M. Moran, C. Y. Payne, D. L. Powell, E. N. Iverson, A. E. Donny, S. M. Banerjee, Q. K. Langdon, T. R. Gunn, R. A. Rodriguez-Soto, A. Madero, J. J. Baczenas, K. M. Kleczko, F. Liu, R. Matney, K. Singhal, , M. Schumer

The paper identifies a lethal mitonuclear incompatibility in swordtail fish hybrids involving three Complex I genes, showing non-additive genetic effects and inter-species transfer of incompatibility.
