Females translate male mRNA transferred during mating

L. M. Matzkin, J. M. Bono, H. Pigage, C. W. Allan, F. Diaz, J. McCoy, C. Green, J. Callan, S. Delahunt

The paper investigates whether RNA from Drosophila male seminal fluid is translated by females, identifying 67 male-derived, female-translated proteins and their roles in postmating interactions.

Phylogenomics provides insights into the evolution of cactophily and host plant shifts in Drosophila

N. N. Moreyra, F. C. Almeida, C. Allan, N. Frankel, L. M. Matzkin, E. Hasson

The paper uses genome assemblies and phylogenetic analysis to identify genes involved in adaptation to cacti hosts in Drosophila species.

Propagation of seminal toxins through binary expression gene drives can suppress polyandrous populations

J. Hurtado, S. Revale, L. M. Matzkin

This paper proposes a gene drive system using binary expression to spread dominant lethal alleles and suppress polyandrous populations by engineering seminal proteins that kill females.

Physiological and life history changes associated with seasonal adaptation in the cactophilic Drosophila mojavensis

T. M. Shaible, L. M. Matzkin

This study investigates physiological and life history changes in Drosophila mojavensis under simulated Sonoran Desert summer conditions, finding continued reproduction with reduced viability and increased stress resistance.

Divergent evolutionary trajectories shape the postmating transcriptional profiles of conspecific and heterospecifically mated females

F. Diaz, A. W. Carson, X. Chen, J. M. Coleman, J. M. Bono, L. M. Matzkin

The paper examines postmating transcriptional responses in Drosophila species to test the coevolutionary divergence model, finding divergent gene expression and disrupted profiles in heterospecific matings.
