(Submitter supplied) The differential production of pheromones is a major barrier to mating between species in Drosophila. Individuals from morphologically similar sister species can produce different sets of cuticular hydrocarbons that allow potential mates to identify them as a suitable partner. In order to elucidate cis-regulatory mechanisms behind speciation, we looked for allele-specific expression in hydrocarbon-producing oenocytes from F1 hybrids of the sister species D. more...

(Submitter supplied) We identified 6,975 insertion/deletion events of between 10 and 100 bp in length from the Drosophila simulans and Drosophila sechellia Mercator/MAVID genomic sequence alignment. Replicate pure samples of Drosophila simulans and Drosophila sechellia gDNA were competitively hybridized to measure the expected relative hybridization intensity of alleles from each species. We used these measured intensities to assess the likelihood that the hybridization signal at each probe in an experimental animal reflected homozygosity or heterozygosity at that locus.

(Submitter supplied) In order to test the hypothesis that adult hybrid misexpression results from the cascading effect of earlier-expressed developmentally important improperly regulated genes, as well as address whether Von Baer’s 3rd law (suggesting that earlier stages of development should be more similar between species than later stages) holds at the level of gene expression, we conducted whole-transcriptome Drosophila melanogaster cDNA microarray-based expression profiling of males of D. more...

Analysis of males of 3 species (melanogaster, sechellia, simulans) and D. sechellia x D. simulans F1 hybrids during 4 developmental stages. Results within and between pure species and hybrids provide insight into both the evolution of gene regulation in the context of development and speciation.

(Submitter supplied) Sex chromosomes and more particularely the X chromosomes are known to have a major effect on hybrid male sterility. In this experiment by making use of the reciprocal hybrids between D. simulans and D. sechellia, we are showing the effect of these chromosomes on gene expression in male hybrids Keywords: X chromosome, hybrid

(Submitter supplied) Species often produce sterile hybrids early in their evolutionary divergence, and some evidence suggests that hybrid sterility may be associated with deviations or disruptions in gene expression. In support of this idea, many studies have shown that a high proportion of male-biased genes are underexpressed compared to non-sex-biased genes in sterile F1 male hybrids of Drosophila species. In this study, we examined and compared patterns of misexpression in 4 day old sterile male F1 hybrids of Drosophila simulans and its sibling species, D. more...

(Submitter supplied) Males hybrids from the crosses between species of the D. simulans clade are steriles as the females are fertiles. Hybrid male sterility is due to severe defects in spermatogenesis and phenotypic differences are observed between the different hybrids involving D. simulans, D. sechellia and D. mauritiana. In this study we are comparing gene expression in the testes of hybrids involving the female D. simulans and the males D. more...
