ZZ Top: faster and more adaptive Z chromosome evolution in two Lepidoptera

A. J. Mongue, M. E. Hansen, J. R. Walters

The paper examines Z chromosome evolution in two Lepidoptera species, finding evidence for both faster and more adaptive evolution, with the neo-Z in monarch butterflies showing unique patterns.

Population genomics reveals complex patterns of immune gene evolution in monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus)

W.-H. Tan, A. J. Mongue, J. C. de Roode, N. M. Gerardo, J. R. Walters

This study examines immune gene evolution in monarch butterflies, finding that immune genes show varied evolutionary patterns, with signaling genes being conserved and modulation genes showing relaxed selection.

Molecular evolution of non-fertilizing sperm in Lepidoptera suggests minimal direct involvement in sperm competition

A. J. Mongue, M. E. Hansen, L. Gu, C. E. Sorenson, J. R. Walters

The paper examines the molecular evolution of sperm genes in Lepidoptera, finding stronger purifying and positive selection in polyandrous species due to sperm competition.

A complex copy number variant underlies differences in both colour plumage and cold adaptation in a dimorphic seabird.

A. Tigano, T. K. Reiertsen, J. R. Walters, V. L. Friesen

The paper identifies a complex copy number variant in a non-coding region that underlies plumage color dimorphism and thermal adaptation in Atlantic common murres.
