Germline restricted chromosomes in dark winged fungus gnats show dynamic chromosome organisation despite strong purifying selection on genes

Christina N. Hodson, Aleksandra Bliznina, Federico Abascal…·Kamil S. Jaroň

This study generates chromosome-scale genome assemblies of germline restricted chromosomes (GRCs) in fungus gnats and finds they evolve dynamically with gene-rich content under strong purifying selection.
