Centromere-associated retroelement evolution in Drosophila melanogaster reveals an underlying conflict

Lucas W. Hemmer, Sherif Negm, Xuewen Geng, Cécile Courret, Beatriz M. Navarro-Domínguez, Iain Speece, Xiaolu Wei, Eddyson Altidor, James Chaffer, John S. Sproul, Amanda M. Larracuente

The paper studies the evolution of G2/Jockey-3, a retroelement associated with centromeres in Drosophila melanogaster, finding it is likely a selfish element that targets centromeres to evade host defenses.

The meiotic recombination landscape of Drosophila virilis is robust to mitotic damage during hybrid dysgenesis

Lucas W. Hemmer, Guilherme Borges Dias, Brittny R. Smith, Kelley Van Vaerenberghe, Ashley Howard, Casey Bergman, Justin P. Blumenstiel

The paper examines how meiotic recombination in Drosophila virilis is affected by transposable element activation during hybrid dysgenesis, finding it robust but with mitotic recombination effects.
