Genetic polymorphism varies among species and within genomes, and has important
implications for the evolution and conservation of species. The determinants of this variation …

Drosophila has been studied as a biological model for many years and many discoveries in
biology rely on this species. Research on transposable elements (TEs) is not an exception …

It has recently been demonstrated that inference methods based on genealogical processes
with recombination can uncover past population history in unprecedented detail. However …

Fruit flies of the genus Drosophila have been an attractive and effective genetic model
organism since Thomas Hunt Morgan and colleagues made seminal discoveries with them …

Given genomic variation data from multiple individuals, computing the likelihood of complex
population genetic models is often infeasible. To circumvent this problem, we introduce a …

Drosophila melanogaster is a valuable invertebrate model for viral infection and antiviral
immunity, and is a focus for studies of insect-virus coevolution. Here we use a metagenomic …

The relative evolutionary roles of adaptive and non-adaptive processes remain a central
question in population genetics. Resolution of this debate has been difficult as an …

Accurately inferring the genome-wide landscape of recombination rates in natural
populations is a central aim in genomics, as patterns of linkage influence everything from …

It has been hypothesized that individually-rare hidden structural variants (SVs) could
account for a significant fraction of variation in complex traits. Here we identified more than …

Understanding phylogenetic relationships among taxa is key to designing and implementing
comparative analyses. The genus Drosophila, which contains over 1600 species, is one of …
