Ancient Chromosomal Inversions Shape Sexual Traits in Wild Guppies
New research reports that ancient chromosomal inversions play a key role in shaping sexual traits in wild guppy populations. The findings suggest these structural genome variants help maintain variation in traits such as colouration that influence mate choice and evolution. It is drawing attention from readers following genetics and evolutionary biology news.
