Recurrent chromosome reshuffling and the evolution of neo-sex chromosomes in parrots

Zhen Huang et al.

Summary: This study provides insights into the complex evolutionary history of parrot chromosomes by analyzing the genome assemblies of four parrot species. The researchers discovered frequent chromosome fusions and fissions in parrots, which are likely associated with the loss of specific genes. Additionally, they found that parrots have experienced fusion and addition events in their sex chromosomes.

Support for faster and more adaptive Z chromosome evolution in two divergent lepidopteran lineages

Andrew J. Mongue et al.

Summary: Research has shown that in two species of Lepidoptera, the rate of divergence and adaptive evolution of Z chromosomes is faster, especially in the neo-Z portion of the monarch butterfly sex chromosome. The neo-Z chromosome has fewer male-biased genes than expected, with unbiased and female-biased genes driving the signal for adaptive evolution.

Widespread Recombination Suppression Facilitates Plant Sex Chromosome Evolution

Joanna L. Rifkin et al.

Summary: The study suggests that low recombination rates may precede the formation of sex-linked regions, with large regions of recombination suppression found across all chromosomes. Additionally, gene and repetitive sequence density are correlated with recombination rates, with the variation patterns differing by repetitive element type.

Chromosomal Analysis in Crotophaga ani (Aves, Cuculiformes) Reveals Extensive Genomic Reorganization and an Unusual Z-Autosome Robertsonian Translocation

Rafael Kretschmer et al.

Summary: The study found extensive chromosome reorganization in the smooth-billed ani, including interchromosomal rearrangements involving macro and microchromosomes. Intrachromosomal rearrangements were also observed in some macrochromosomes, with the most notable finding being a rare event of Robertsonian translocation between microchromosome 17 and the Z chromosome.
