Genome-wide variation in DNA methylation linked to developmental stage and chromosomal suppression of recombination in white-throated sparrows

Dan Sun, Thomas S. Layman, Hyeonsoo Jeong, Paramita Chatterjee, Kathleen E. Grogan, Jennifer R. Merritt, Donna L. Maney, Soojin V. Yi

The paper shows DNA methylation changes linked to development and chromosomal suppression of recombination in white-throated sparrows, with implications for genome integrity and gene expression.

A behavioral polymorphism caused by a single gene inside a supergene

Jennifer R. Merritt, Kathleen E. Grogan, Wendy M. Zinzow-Kramer, Dan Sun, Eric A. Ortlund, Soojin V. Yi, Donna L. Maney

The paper shows that a single gene within a supergene contributes to aggressive behavior in white-throated sparrows through allelic imbalance and regulatory variation.
