The paper identifies large-scale genomic rearrangements in the J1 lineage of Pogonomyrmex barbatus that may explain reproductive isolation in the dependent-lineage system.

This study identifies genetic loci associated with cuticular hydrocarbon variation in the desert ant Cataglyphis niger, revealing a polygenic architecture underlying chemical signaling traits.

This paper identifies a new supergene in desert ants associated with social polymorphism, showing that social chromosomes are ancient and conserved across Hymenoptera.

The paper extends a recombination model to account for negative crossover interference and provides methods for simulation and parameter estimation.

This study shows desiccation increases recombination and interference in Drosophila melanogaster, with effects more pronounced in desiccation-sensitive genotypes, suggesting fitness-dependent plasticity in recombination.
