Parallel Evolution of Cold Tolerance Within Drosophila melanogaster

The paper shows that cold tolerance evolved independently in three Drosophila melanogaster populations and identifies genetic variants associated with this adaptation.

A Thousand Fly Genomes: An Expanded Drosophila Genome Nexus

The paper expands the Drosophila Genome Nexus to include 1,122 genomes, enhancing population genomic analysis and natural variation discovery.

Oligogenic Adaptation, Soft Sweeps, and Parallel Melanic Evolution in Drosophila melanogaster

The paper investigates the genetic basis of melanism in Drosophila melanogaster, finding that parallel adaptation occurs through oligogenic selection on standing genetic variation.

Genetic Mapping by Bulk Segregant Analysis in Drosophila: Experimental Design and Simulation-Based Inference

This paper evaluates bulk segregant analysis (BSA) for QTL mapping in Drosophila, showing it provides more accurate signals than introgression mapping and introduces a simulation-based inference method for BSA.

Natural Selection Shapes the Mosaic Ancestry of the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel and the D. melanogaster Reference Genome

The paper estimates African ancestry proportions and admixture patterns in Drosophila populations, finding significant variation in introgression and evidence of natural selection against incompatible variants.
