The origin and maintenance of supergenes contributing to ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring

M. Jamsandekar, M. S. Ferreira, M. E. Pettersson, E. Farrell, B. W. Davis, L. Andersson

The paper investigates the origin and maintenance of chromosomal inversions in Atlantic herring, showing they are old, formed by ectopic recombination, and maintained by purifying selection.

Spatiotemporal variations in retrovirus-host interactions among Darwin's finches

J. Hill, M. Lillie, M. E. Pettersson, C.-J. Rubin, R. Grant, P. Grant, L. Andersson, P. Jern

The paper examines spatiotemporal variations in retrovirus-host interactions among Darwin's finches, revealing shared ERVs pre-dating speciation and population-specific ERV variation linked to historical gene flow and speciation.

Darwin's finches - an adaptive radiation constructed from ancestral genetic modules

C.-J. Rubin, E. D. Enbody, M. P. Dobreva, A. Abzhanov, B. W. Davis, S. Lamichhaney, M. E. Pettersson, C. G. Sprehn, C. A. Valle, K. Vasco, O. Wallerman, B. R. Grant, P. Grant, L. Andersson

The paper investigates the genomic basis of phenotypic diversity in Darwin's finches, identifying ancestral haplotype blocks that contribute to beak and body size variation.

The genetic architecture underlying ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring is not consistent with the infinitesimal model

F. Han, M. Jamsandekar, M. E. Pettersson, L. Su, A. Fuentes-Pardo, B. W. Davis, D. Bekkevold, F. Berg, M. Casini, G. Dahle, E. D. Farrell, A. Folkvord, L. Andersson

The study identifies hundreds of loci associated with ecological adaptation in Atlantic herring, finding that allele frequency shifts at these loci contradict the infinitesimal model for complex traits.
