The genomic landscape of adaptation to a new host plant

This study identifies a large genomic inversion associated with host adaptation in Tephritis conura flies, showing its role in reproductive isolation and speciation.

Colonization of a novel host plant reduces phenotypic variation

The paper examines how adaptation to a novel host plant affects evolvability in peacock flies, finding reduced evolvability in females of the derived host race and evidence of phenotypic modularity.

Non-parallel morphological divergence following colonization of a new host plant

The paper investigates morphological divergence in peacock flies after host plant colonization, finding low and variable divergence with only one trait consistently different.
