Transcriptome-based phylogeny of the semi-aquatic bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerromorpha) reveals patterns of lineage expansion in a series of new adaptive zones

D. Armisen, S. Viala, I. da Rocha Silva Cordeiro, A. J. J. Crumeire, E. Hendaoui, A. le Bouquin, W. Duchemin, E. Santos, W. Toubiana, A. Vargas-Lowman, C. F. Burguez Floriano, D. A. Polhemus, Y.-H. Wang, L. Rowe, F. F. F. Moreira, A. Khila

This study reconstructs the phylogeny of Gerromorpha using transcriptomic data and fossil records, revealing patterns of lineage expansion and phenotypic evolution following water surface invasion.

Pleiotropy promotes male exaggerated weapon and its associated fighting behaviour in a water strider

W. Toubiana, D. Armisen, A. Decaras, A. Khila

This study shows that pleiotropy influences the evolution of hyperallometric legs and fighting behavior in male water striders through genetic factors like BMP11 and Ubx.

Fluctuating selection strength and intense male competition underlie variation and exaggeration of a water strider’s male weapon

W. Toubiana, A. Khila

This study investigates how fluctuating selection strength and male competition drive variation and exaggeration of male weapon traits in water striders.
