In the wake of constant improvements in sequencing technologies, numerous insect
genomes have been sequenced. Currently, 1219 insect genome‐sequencing projects have …

The coexistence of discrete morphs that differ in multiple traits is common within natural
populations of many taxa. Such morphs are often associated with chromosomal inversions …

Upon assembling the first Gossypium herbaceum (A1) genome and substantially improving
the existing Gossypium arboreum (A2) and Gossypium hirsutum ((AD) 1) genomes, we …

Low‐coverage whole genome sequencing (lcWGS) has emerged as a powerful and cost‐
effective approach for population genomic studies in both model and nonmodel species …

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 …

Motivation Accurate and dense linkage maps are useful in family-based linkage and
association studies, quantitative trait locus map**, analysis of genome synteny and other …

Hybridisation and introgression can dramatically alter the relationships among groups of
species, leading to phylogenetic discordance across the genome and between populations …

We introduce the concept of topology weighting, a method for quantifying relationships
between taxa that are not necessarily monophyletic, and visualizing how these relationships …

Butterfly wing patterns provide a rich comparative framework to study how morphological
complexity develops and evolves. Here we used CRISPR/Cas9 somatic mutagenesis to test …

The optix gene has been implicated in butterfly wing pattern adaptation by genetic
association, map**, and expression studies. The actual developmental function of this …
