Increased evolutionary rate in the Z-chromosome of Morpho butterflies and implications for speciation.

M. Lopez Villavicencio, J. Ledamoisel, C. Lopez-Roques, V. Debat, V. Llaurens

This study examines the Z-chromosome evolution in Morpho butterflies, finding increased genomic rearrangements and positive selection, suggesting a role in speciation through pre- and post-zygotic isolation.

Evidence for increased fitness of a plant pathogen conferred by epigenetic variation

R. Gopalan-Nair, A. Coissac, L. Legrand, C. Lopez-Roques, Y. Pecrix, C. Vandecasteele, O. BOUCHEZ, X. Barlet, A. Lanois, A. Givaudan, J. Brillard, S. Genin, A. GUIDOT

This study shows epigenetic variation, specifically DNA methylation, contributes to rapid adaptation of the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum to host plants.

Transcriptomic profiling reveals host-specific evolutionary pathways promoting enhanced fitness in the broad host range pathogen Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum

R. GOPALAN-NAIR, M. F. JARDINAUD, L. LEGRAND, C. LOPEZ-ROQUES, O. BOUCHEZ, S. GENIN, A. GUIDOT

This study shows that transcriptomic changes, not genetic ones, drive host-specific adaptation in Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum, revealing two distinct gene expression patterns linked to host genotype.

Suspicions of two bridgehead invasions of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex in France

E. Dupas, K. Durand, A. Rieux, M. Briand, O. Pruvost, A. Cunty, N. Denance, C. Donnadieu, B. Legendre, C. Lopez-Roques, S. Cesbron, V. Ravigne, M.-A. Jacques

The paper traces the introduction and spread of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex in France using molecular evolution rates and a new VNTR-13 scheme, suggesting two bridgehead invasions from Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur.
