Sex-biased gene expression under sexually antagonistic and sex-limited selection

R. Axel W. Wiberg, Martyna K. Zwoinska, Philipp Kaufmann…·Elina Immonen

The paper examines how sex-specific selection affects gene expression in seed beetles, finding that sex-limited selection leads to greater expression differentiation and sex-biased genes than sexually antagonistic selection.

DNA motifs are not general predictors of recombination in two Drosophila sister species.

James Malcolm Howie, Rupert Mazzucco, Thomas Taus…·Christian Schlötterer

The paper investigates whether DNA motifs predict recombination rates in Drosophila species and finds that motif density does not explain large-scale recombination patterns in D. melanogaster or its sister species D. simulans.
