Faster rates of molecular sequence evolution in reproduction-related genes and in species with hypodermic sperm morphologies

R. A. W. Wiberg, J. N. Brand, L. Schaerer

The paper compares molecular sequence evolution rates in reproduction-related genes and species with hypodermic sperm morphologies in hermaphroditic flatworms, finding faster evolution in hypodermic species.

Large-scale phylogenomics of the genus Macrostomum (Platyhelminthes) reveals cryptic diversity and novel sexual traits

J. Brand, G. Viktorin, R. A. W. Wiberg, C. Beisel, L. Schaerer

This study uses phylogenomic data to reveal cryptic diversity and novel traits in the flatworm genus Macrostomum, identifying 94 potentially new species.

Frequent origins of traumatic insemination involve convergent shifts in sperm and genital morphology

J. N. Brand, L. Harmon, L. Schaerer

The paper identifies multiple independent evolutionary origins of traumatic insemination in flatworms and shows convergent morphological shifts driven by sexual selection and conflict.
