The MUC19 Gene: An Evolutionary History of Recurrent Introgression and Natural Selection

The paper identifies a Denisovan-like MUC19 haplotype in Indigenous Americans and Neanderthals, showing it is under positive selection and has high copy numbers of a tandem repeat.

The Utility of Ancestral and Derived Allele Sharing for Genome-Wide Inferences of Introgression

This study introduces new methods for detecting introgression by incorporating ancestral allele sharing, finding they perform comparably to existing derived allele sharing methods.

Patterns of and processes shaping population structure and introgression among recently differentiated Drosophila melanogaster populations

The paper examines population structure and introgression in Drosophila melanogaster, finding cryptic diversity and polygenic mate choice in Subtropical Africa.

15 years of introgression studies: quantifying gene flow across Eukaryotes

This paper quantifies introgression across Eukaryotes by analyzing 724 studies, finding higher frequency in plants and mammals, and highlighting biases in reporting and methods.

Widespread introgression across a phylogeny of 155 Drosophila genomes

The paper analyzes 155 Drosophila genomes to detect widespread introgression across nine monophyletic radiations, revealing both ancient and recent hybridization events.

Highly contiguous assemblies of 101 drosophilid genomes

The paper presents high-quality genome assemblies for 101 drosophilid lines using Oxford Nanopore sequencing, achieving high contig N50 and BUSCO completeness.

P-elements strengthen reproductive isolation within the Drosophila simulans species complex

The paper investigates whether P-elements strengthen reproductive isolation between Drosophila simulans and its sister species by analyzing hybrid fecundity in crosses with differing PE status.

Pure species discriminate against hybrids in the Drosophila melanogaster species subgroup

The paper investigates whether F1 hybrids between Drosophila species are less attractive than pure species and finds that pure species strongly discriminate against hybrids.

Recent invasion of P transposable element into Drosophila yakuba

The paper reports a recent invasion of P-elements into Drosophila yakuba, showing transient frequency changes and absence in sister species, suggesting horizontal gene transfer and hybridization effects.
