2012 journal article

Coalescent patterns for chromosomal inversions in divergent populations.

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological Sciences, 2.

Rafael Guerrero

author keywords: chromosomal inversions; coalescent models; local adaptation; recombination; genetic variation
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Biological; Alleles; Animals; Chromosome Inversion / genetics; Chromosomes / genetics; Computer Simulation; Evolution, Molecular; Genetic Drift; Genetic Speciation; Genetic Variation; Genetics, Population; Models, Genetic; Recombination, Genetic; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR: It is found that ancient inversion polymorphisms cause genetic diversity to depart dramatically from neutral expectations, and coalescent models of neutral sites linked to an inversions polymorphism in two locally adapted populations provide the foundation for quantitative analyses of the roles that inversions have played in speciation.

Conformational Changes in MutS during Mismtach Repair Signaling Determined with Single Molecule FRET

Biophysical Journal, 102(3), 283a.

By: R. Qiu n & K. Weninger n

By: G. Blomquist*, R. Jurenka*, C. Schal n & C. Tittiger*

TL;DR: There is much better understanding of how pheromones are made, and in some systems the authors are developing an understanding of their regulation at the molecular level, and the continued application of the powerful tools of molecular biology along with studies using genomics and proteomics will only increase the rate at which researchers increase the understanding of phersomone production.
