The origin and maintenance of supergenes contributing to ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring

M. Jamsandekar, M. S. Ferreira, M. E. Pettersson, E. Farrell, B. W. Davis, L. Andersson

The paper investigates the origin and maintenance of chromosomal inversions in Atlantic herring, showing they are old, formed by ectopic recombination, and maintained by purifying selection.

Centuries of genome instability and evolution in soft-shell clam transmissible cancer

S. F. Hart, M. A. Yonemitsu, R. M. Giersch, B. F. Beal, G. Arriagada, B. W. Davis, E. A. Ostrander, S. P. Goff, M. J. Metzger

The paper analyzes the genome of a transmissible cancer in soft-shell clams to show its long evolutionary history and structural genomic instability over ~500 years.

Darwin's finches - an adaptive radiation constructed from ancestral genetic modules

C.-J. Rubin, E. D. Enbody, M. P. Dobreva, A. Abzhanov, B. W. Davis, S. Lamichhaney, M. E. Pettersson, C. G. Sprehn, C. A. Valle, K. Vasco, O. Wallerman, B. R. Grant, P. Grant, L. Andersson

The paper investigates the genomic basis of phenotypic diversity in Darwin's finches, identifying ancestral haplotype blocks that contribute to beak and body size variation.

The genetic architecture underlying ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring is not consistent with the infinitesimal model

F. Han, M. Jamsandekar, M. E. Pettersson, L. Su, A. Fuentes-Pardo, B. W. Davis, D. Bekkevold, F. Berg, M. Casini, G. Dahle, E. D. Farrell, A. Folkvord, L. Andersson

The study identifies hundreds of loci associated with ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring, finding that allele frequency shifts at these loci contradict the infinitesimal model for complex traits.
