Single-fly assemblies fill major phylogenomic gaps across the Drosophilidae Tree of Life

B. Y. Kim, H. R. Gellert, S. H. Church, A. Suvorov, S. S. Anderson, O. Barmina, S. G. Beskid, A. A. Comeault, K. N. Crown, S. E. Diamond, S. Dorus, T. Fujichika, J. A. Hemker, J. Hrcek, M. Kankare, , D. A. Petrov

The paper presents 183 new genome assemblies for 179 drosophilid species using single-fly long-read sequencing, improving phylogenomic coverage and enabling a well-resolved multi-locus phylogeny.

Secondary reversion to sexual monomorphism associated with tissue-specific loss of doublesex expression

J.-j. Gao, O. Barmina, A. Thompson, B. Y. Kim, A. Suvorov, K. Tanaka, H. Watabe, M. J. Toda, J.-M. Chen, T. K. Katoh, A. Kopp

The paper examines the loss of a male-specific sex comb in a Drosophilidae species, linking it to a secondary loss of doublesex (dsx) expression, and discusses implications for the evolution of sexual dimorphism.
