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.

Genome evolution is surprisingly predictable after initial hybridization

Q. K. Langdon, J. S. Groh, S. Aguillon, D. L. Powell, T. R. Gunn, C. Y. Payne, J. J. Baczenas, A. Donny, T. O. Dodge, K. Du, M. Schartl, O. Rios-Cardenas, C. Gutierrez-Rodriguez, M. Morris, M. Schumer

The paper shows that local ancestry in hybrid swordtail fish populations is repeatable due to strong early selection, and this repeatability increases with deeper evolutionary divergence.

Kinship and genetic variation in aquarium-spawned Acropora hyacinthus corals

E. H. Lopez-Nandam, C. Y. Payne, J. C. Delbeek, F. Dunker, L. Krol, L. Larkin, K. Lev, R. Ross, R. Schaeffer, S. Yong, R. Albright

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.

Molecular physiology of pumiliotoxin sequestration in a poison frog

A. Alvarez-Buylla, C. Y. Payne, C. Vidoudez, S. A. Trauger, L. A. O'Connell

This study investigates how the Dyeing poison frog metabolizes pumiliotoxin into a more potent alkaloid and identifies gene expression changes and potential metabolic enzymes involved.
