Females and males often differ extensively in their physical traits. This sexual dimorphism is
largely caused by differences in gene expression. Recent advances in genomics, such as …

Methods of transcriptional profiling have made it possible to compare gene expression
between females and males on a genome-wide scale. Such studies have revealed that sex-…

A number of genes associated with sexual traits and reproduction evolve at the sequence
level faster than the majority of genes coding for non-sex-related traits. Whole genome …

We have estimated the selective effects of amino acid replacements in natural populations
by comparing levels of polymorphism in 91 genes in African populations of Drosophila …

Many genes in higher eukaryotes show sexually dimorphic expression, and these genes tend
to be among the most divergent between species. In most cases, however, it is not known …

Studies of morphology, interspecific hybridization, protein/DNA sequences, and levels of
gene expression have suggested that sex-related characters (particularly those involved in …

Genetic variation is the fuel of evolution, with standing genetic variation especially important
for short-term evolution and local adaptation. To date, studies of spatiotemporal patterns of …

The detection of selection, both positive and negative, acting on a DNA sequence or class
of nucleotide sites requires comparison with a reference sequence that is unaffected by …

Patterns of polymorphism and divergence in Drosophila protein-coding genes suggest that
a considerable fraction of amino acid differences between species can be attributed to …
