Polygenic architecture of adaptation to a high-altitude environment for Drosophila melanogaster wing shape and size.

K. Pelletier, M. Bilodeau, I. Pellizzari-Delano, M. D. Siemon, Y. Huang, J. E. Pool, I. E. Dworkin

This study identifies a polygenic architecture for wing shape and size adaptation in Drosophila melanogaster to high-altitude environments, with one large-effect QTL and many small-effect alleles contributing to divergence.

Sexually discordant selection is associated with trait specific morphological changes and a complex genomic response

T. Audet, J. Krol, K. Pelletier, A. D. Stewart, I. Dworkin

This study examines genomic and morphological changes in Drosophila melanogaster under sexually discordant selection, finding trait-specific size dimorphism shifts and genomic differentiation linked to sexual conflict.

Reexamining Waddington: Canalization and new mutations are not required for the evolution of genetic assimilation

S. R. Marzec, K. Pelletier, A. H.-P. Chang, I. Dworkin

This study reexamines Waddington's genetic assimilation by showing cryptic genetic variation, not new mutations, drives the evolution of constitutive traits, and evolved canalization does not contribute to this process.
