Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals signatures of selection for orb-weaving behavior in spiders

Calvin M. Runnels, Jeremiah Miller, Andrew G. Gordus

The paper uses transcriptomic data from 98 spider species to analyze selection signatures in genes associated with orb-weaving behavior, identifying patterns of positive and relaxed selection and gene copy number differences.
