Sexually discordant selection is associated with trait specific morphological changes and a complex genomic response

This study examines genomic and morphological changes in Drosophila melanogaster under sexually discordant selection, finding trait-specific size dimorphism shifts and genomic differentiation linked to sexual conflict.

Reexamining Waddington: Canalization and new mutations are not required for the evolution of genetic assimilation

This study reexamines Waddington's genetic assimilation by showing cryptic genetic variation, not new mutations, drives the evolution of constitutive traits, and evolved canalization does not contribute to this process.

The influence of adaptation to life at high-altitude on condition dependent sexual shape and size dimorphism in Drosophila melanogaster

The paper examines sex-specific developmental plasticity and condition dependence in Drosophila melanogaster from high and low altitude populations, finding modest effects on wing size and shape but significant changes in larval mass.

Spatial heterogeneity in resources alters selective dynamics in Drosophila melanogaster

This study examines how spatial resource heterogeneity affects natural and sexual selection in Drosophila melanogaster by testing allele purging dynamics across different spatial environments.

Genetic and environmental canalization are not associated among altitudinally varying populations of Drosophila melanogaster

The paper tests if genetic and environmental canalization are associated in Drosophila melanogaster populations from different altitudes and finds no significant relationship.

Sexual selection does not increase the rate of compensatory adaptation to a mutation influencing a secondary sexual trait in Drosophila melanogaster

This study tests if sexual selection increases compensatory adaptation to a mutation in Drosophila melanogaster but finds no effect on the rate of phenotypic suppression.
