Ecological niche contributes to the persistence of the Western x Glaucous-winged Gull hybrid zone

Xuewen Geng, Jeremy Summers, Nancy X Chen

The paper examines the role of ecological factors in maintaining a stable hybrid zone between western and glaucous-winged gulls, finding evidence of niche divergence and supporting the bounded superiority model.

Centromere-associated retroelement evolution in Drosophila melanogaster reveals an underlying conflict

Lucas W. Hemmer, Sherif Negm, Xuewen Geng…·Amanda M. Larracuente

The paper studies the evolution of G2/Jockey-3, a retroelement associated with centromeres in Drosophila melanogaster, finding it is likely a selfish element that targets centromeres to evade host defenses.
