Variation in recombination rate: adaptive or not?
Rates of meiotic recombination are widely variable both within and among species.
However, the functional significance of this variation remains largely unknown. Is the …

Genomic architecture and introgression shape a butterfly radiation
We used 20 de novo genome assemblies to probe the speciation history and architecture of
gene flow in rapidly radiating Heliconius butterflies. Our tests to distinguish incomplete …

Mutation load at a mimicry supergene sheds new light on the evolution of inversion polymorphisms
Chromosomal inversions are ubiquitous in genomes and often coordinate complex
phenotypes, such as the covariation of behavior and morphology in many birds, fishes …

Recombination rate variation shapes barriers to introgression across butterfly genomes
Hybridisation and introgression can dramatically alter the relationships among groups of
species, leading to phylogenetic discordance across the genome and between populations …
