Genomic impacts of chromosomal inversions in parapatric Drosophila species.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 5 Feb 2012

McGaugh Suzanne E, Noor Mohamed A F

Abstract excerpt

Chromosomal inversions impact genetic variation and facilitate speciation in part by reducing recombination in heterokaryotypes. We generated multiple whole-genome shotgun sequences of the parapatric species pair Drosophila pseudoobscura and Drosophila persimilis and their sympatric outgroup (Drosophila miranda) and compared the average pairwise differences for neutral sites within, just outside and far outside...
