Cancer- and behavior-related genes are targeted by selection in the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii)

13 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD) is an aggressive cancer notorious for its rare etiology and its impact on Tasmanian devil populations. Two regions underlying an evolutionary response to this cancer were recently identified using genomic time-series pre- and post-DTFD arrival. Here, we support that DFTD shaped the genome of the Tasmanian devil in an even more extensive way than previously reported. We detected...
