Paracentric chromosomal inversions are major architects of organismal evolution and have been associated with adaptations relevant to malaria transmission in anopheline mosquitoes. The processes ...

Journal of Orthoptera Research, Vol. 19, No. 2 (2010), pp. 253-260 (8 pages) In the past few years large-scale genome sequencing has demonstrated that inversion rearrangements are more frequent than ...

Chromosomal rearrangements have a relevant role in organismic evolution. However, little is known about the mechanisms that lead different phylogenetic clades to have different chromosomal ...

Sex chromosomes can evolve once recombination is halted between a homologous pair of chromosomes. Owing to detailed studies using key model systems, we have a nuanced understanding and a rich review ...
