Hybridization between species is a genomic instability factor involved in increasing
mutation rate and new chromosomal rearrangements. Evidence of a relationship between …

The insertion site polymorphism of the copia, mdg1, mdg3, gypsy, and P transposable elements
was analysed by in situ hybridization to the polytene chromosomes in genomes of males …

… Osvaldo and Helena, present abnormal patterns of expression in hybrids (García Guerreiro

Background Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a substantial amount of all eukaryotic
genomes. They induce an important proportion of deleterious mutations by insertion into …

Transposable elements (TEs), repeated mobile sequences, are ubiquitous in the eukaryotic
kingdom. Their mobilizing capacity confers on them a high mutagenic potential, which must …

Global warming is forcing insect populations to move and adapt, triggering adaptive genetic
responses. Thermal stress is known to alter gene expression, repressing the transcription of …

Genetic variation is the fuel of evolution. However, analyzing evolutionary dynamics in
natural populations is challenging, sequencing of entire populations remains costly and …
