Stepwise evolution of a butterfly supergene via duplication and inversion

K.-W. Kim, R. De-Kayne, I. J. Gordon, K. S. Omufwoko, D. J. Martins, R. ffrench-Constant, S. H. Martin

The paper investigates the evolution of a butterfly supergene, identifying structural duplications and inversions that contributed to recombination suppression over millions of years.

Convergent selection on juvenile hormone signaling is associated with the evolution of eusociality in bees

B. M. Jones, B. E. Rubin, O. Dudchenko, C. J. Kingwell, I. M. Traniello, Z. Y. Wang, K. M. Kapheim, E. S. Wyman, P. A. Adastra, W. Liu, L. R. Parsons, S. R. Jackson, K. Goodwin, S. M. Davidson, M. J. McBride, , S. D. Kocher

The paper identifies genomic signatures and loci associated with convergent gains and losses of eusociality in sweat bees, linking them to juvenile hormone signaling proteins.

Whole-chromosome hitchhiking driven by a male-killing endosymbiont

S. H. Martin, K. S. Singh, I. J. Gordon, K. S. Omufwoko, S. Collins, I. A. Warren, H. Munby, O. Brattström, W. Traut, D. J. Martins, D. A. S. Smith, C. D. Jiggins, C. Bass, R. H. ffrench-Constant

The paper investigates the origin and spread of a neo-W chromosome in Danaus chrysippus, showing it hitchhiked with a male-killing Spiroplasma endosymbiont due to suppressed recombination.
