The genomics and evolution of inter-sexual mimicry and female-limited polymorphisms in damselflies

B. Willink, K. Tunström, S. Nilen, R. Chikhi, T. Lemane, M. Takahashi, Y. Takahashi, E. I. Svensson, C. W. Wheat

This study identifies the genomic basis of female-limited morphs and male mimicry in damselflies, revealing structural variants and transposable element activity driving these phenotypes.

A genetic switch for male UV-iridescence in an incipient species pair of sulphur butterflies

V. Ficarrotta, J. J. Hanly, L. S. Loh, C. M. Francescutti, A. Ren, K. Tunström, C. W. Wheat, A. H. Porter, B. A. Counterman, A. Martin

This study identifies a genetic switch on the Z chromosome that controls male UV-iridescence in two incipient butterfly species, contributing to reproductive isolation.

A complex interplay between balancing selection and introgression maintains a genus-wide alternative life-history strategy.

k. tunström, A. Woronik, J. J. Hanly, P. Rastas, A. Chichvarkhin, A. D. Warren, A. Kawahara, S. D. Schoville, V. Ficarrotta, A. H. Porter, W. B. Watt, A. Martin, C. W. Wheat

The paper identifies the genetic basis of an alternative life-history strategy in butterflies and shows it originated once, maintained by balancing selection and introgression across species.
