A macroevolutionary role for chromosomal fusion and fission in Erebia butterflies

H. Augustijnen, L. Baetscher, M. Cesanek, T. Chkhartishvili, V. Dinca, G. Iankoshvili, K. Ogawa, R. Vila, S. Klopfstein, J. de Vos, K. Lucek

This study investigates the role of chromosomal fusions and fissions in speciation rates among Erebia butterflies, finding that fissions are more commonly associated with speciation events.

The genome sequence of the lesser marbled fritillary, Brenthis ino, and evidence for a segregating neo-Z chromosome

A. Mackintosh, D. Laetsch, T. Baril, R. Foster, V. Dinca, R. Vila, A. Hayward, K. Lohse

This paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly for the lesser marbled fritillary, Brenthis ino, and provides evidence for a segregating neo-Z chromosome in males.

The Pleistocene species pump past its prime: evidence from European butterfly sister species

S. Ebdon, D. R. Laetsch, L. Dapporto, A. Hayward, M. G. Ritchie, V. Dinca, R. Vila, K. Lohse

The paper estimates divergence times for European butterfly sister species using genome-wide transcriptome data, finding most diverged before the Pleistocene and showing contact zones are not limited to early speciation stages.

Global invasion history of the world’s most abundant pest butterfly: a citizen science population genomics study

S. F. Ryan, E. Lombaert, A. Espeset, R. Vila, G. Talavera, V. Dinca, M. A. Renshaw, M. W. Eng, M. M. Doellman, E. A. Hornett, Y. Li, M. E. Pfrender, D. Shoemaker

The paper uses citizen science to collect genetic data on the invasive butterfly Pieris rapae, revealing its global spread through human activities and four founding events over 160 years.
