Selective pressures imposed by natural enemies may vary clinally, and the strongest pressure occurs in tropical regions. This spatial structure in selective forces may lead to the evolution of clines in polymorphisms related to resistance to natural enemies. The goal of this project is to investigate, with clinal variation, contemporaneous selection in genes of the Drosophila melanogaster…
The study of the phylogenetic relationships is essential to understand biological phenomena from an evolutionary standpoint. Host-parasite systems can be used as biological models for the study of historical associations. Neotropical stingrays and their parasites are an interesting model system because it should reflect the biogeographical history of the host and parasites into the Neotro…
The question "Are immunity genes more subject to selection than other genes?" has been widely addressed, especially in Drosophila melanogaster. The studies differ in the methods used for detecting selection: while some methods recover what happened in a recent past, others reveal selection in the million-years timescale. Investigating natural selection over a long timescale, Obbard et al.…
