Dear All, I believe that this thread will become one of my most important contributions to the fly field (I hope I will make other contributions)! Here, I introduce the Soy Milk Machine Fly Food Method, a.k.a., DeepCook!#Drosophila#NewPI

New paper from Jon Harper and myself in Proc B! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

The adaptive value of recombination in resolving intralocus sexual conflict by gene duplication | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences

Recombination plays a key role in increasing the efficacy of selection. We investigate whether recombination can also play a role in resolving adaptive conflicts at loci coding for traits shared between the sexes. Errors during recombination events ...
