X-Y divergence of house fly (Musca domestica) proto-sex chromosomes follows distinct evolutionary trajectories despite residing in the same genome

Jae Hak Son, David Michael Luecke, Basanta Bista…·Richard P. Meisel

The paper examines sex chromosome evolution in house flies, finding both canonical and non-canonical divergence patterns despite shared genomic context.

Minimal effects of proto-Y chromosomes on house fly gene expression in spite of evidence that selection maintains stable polygenic sex determination

Jae Hak Son, Tea Kohlbrenner, Svenia D. Heinze…·Richard P. Meisel

The paper examines the effect of proto-Y chromosomes on gene expression in house flies and finds minimal effects despite evidence of selection maintaining polygenic sex determination.
