Chromosomal fusion drives sex chromosome evolution in treehoppers despite long-term X chromosome conservation

Daniela H. Palmer Droguett, Micah Fletcher, Ben T. Alston…·Alison E. Wright

The paper examines X chromosome evolution in treehoppers, finding long-term conservation with one exception of an X-autosome fusion in a species.

Evolutionary stasis of the pseudoautosomal boundary in strepsirrhine primates

Rylan Shearn, Alison E. Wright, Sylvain Mousset…·Gabriel A. B. Marais

The paper studies the pseudoautosomal boundary (PAB) evolution in strepsirrhine primates and finds it has remained stable, unlike in haplorrhines where PAB shifts occurred due to recombination suppression.
