Chromosomal rearrangements (CRs) have been known since almost the beginning of
genetics. While an important role for CRs in speciation has been suggested, evidence …

In the wake of constant improvements in sequencing technologies, numerous insect
genomes have been sequenced. Currently, 1219 insect genome‐sequencing projects have …

We used 20 de novo genome assemblies to probe the speciation history and architecture of
gene flow in rapidly radiating Heliconius butterflies. Our tests to distinguish incomplete …

Summary Butterflies (Papilionoidea), with over 18,000 described species [1], have
captivated naturalists and scientists for centuries. They play a central role in the study of …

Chromosomes are a central unit of genome organization. One-tenth of all described species
on Earth are butterflies and moths, the Lepidoptera, which generally possess 31 …

Motivation Accurate and dense linkage maps are useful in family-based linkage and
association studies, quantitative trait locus mapping, analysis of genome synteny and other …

Abstract Ensembl Genomes (http://www. ensemblgenomes. org) is an integrating resource
for genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species, complementing the resources for …

The tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura, is among the most widespread and destructive
agricultural pests, feeding on over 100 crops throughout tropical and subtropical Asia. By …

Hybridisation and introgression can dramatically alter the relationships among groups of
species, leading to phylogenetic discordance across the genome and between populations …

The codling moth Cydia pomonella, a major invasive pest of pome fruit, has spread around
the globe in the last half century. We generated a chromosome-level scaffold assembly …
