Chromosome evolution in Lepidoptera biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_evobio

New preprint! Using >200 chromosomal genomes, we reconstruct the chromosomes of the ancestral Lepidopteran and show that for over 250 million years of evolution, butterfly and moth genomes have largely been shaped by fusions involving small autosomes and the sex chromosome 🦋🧬

Do chromosome rearrangements fix by genetic drift or natural selection? A test in Brenthis butterflies biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_evobio

Evolution of hybrid inviability associated with chromosome fusions biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_evobio

Genealogical asymmetry under the IM model and a two-taxon test for gene flow biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_evobio

Genomic regions of current low hybridisation mark long-term barriers to gene flow in scarce swallowtail butterflies biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_evobio

European butterflies have been studied intensely by scientists and naturalists for centuries. It is therefore with some surprise that we wish to report the discovery of a European hybrid lineage of butterflies that has persisted for more than 50,000 years. (THREAD)
