  text: Since the commercialization of brine shrimp (genus Artemia) in the 1950s,
    this lineage, and in particular the model species Artemia franciscana, has been
    the subject of extensive research. However, our understanding of the genetic mechanisms
    underlying various aspects of their reproductive biology, including sex determination,
    are still lacking. This is partly due to the scarcity of genomic resources for
    Artemia species and crustaceans in general. Here, we present a chromosome-level
    genome assembly of Artemia franciscana (Kellogg 1906), from the Great Salt Lake,
    USA. The genome is 1GB, and the majority of the genome (81%) is scaffolded into
    21 linkage groups using a previously published high-density linkage map. We performed
    coverage and FST analyses using male and female genomic and transcriptomic reads
    to quantify the extent of differentiation between the Z and W chromosomes. Additionally,
    we quantified the expression levels in male and female heads and gonads and found
    further evidence for dosage compensation in this species.

  text: 'Many insects carry an ancient X chromosome - the Drosophila Muller element
    F - that likely predates their origin. Interestingly, the X has undergone turnover
    in multiple fly species (Diptera) after being conserved for more than 450 MY.
    The long evolutionary distance between Diptera and other sequenced insect clades
    makes it difficult to infer what could have contributed to this sudden increase
    in rate of turnover. Here, we produce the first genome and transcriptome of a
    long overlooked sister-order to Diptera: Mecoptera. We compare the scorpionfly
    Panorpa cognata X-chromosome gene content, expression, and structure, to that
    of several dipteran species as well as more distantly-related insect orders (Orthoptera
    and Blattodea). We find high conservation of gene content between the mecopteran
    X and the dipteran Muller F element, as well as several shared biological features,
    such as the presence of dosage compensation and a low amount of genetic diversity,
    consistent with a low recombination rate. However, the two homologous X chromosomes
    differ strikingly in their size and number of genes they carry. Our results therefore
    support a common ancestry of the mecopteran and ancestral dipteran X chromosomes,
    and suggest that Muller element F shrank in size and gene content after the split
    of Diptera and Mecoptera, which may have contributed to its turnover in dipteran
    insects.'

  text: 'Many insects carry an ancient X chromosome—the Drosophila Muller element

    The long evolutionary distance between Diptera and other sequenced insect clades
    makes it difficult to infer what could have contributed to this sudden increase
    in rate of turnover. Here, we produce the first genome and transcriptome of scorpionflies
    (genus Panorpa), an insect belonging to a long overlooked sister-order to Diptera:
    Mecoptera. Combining our genome assembly with genomic short-read data, we obtain
    genome coverage and identify X-linked super-scaffolds. We further perform a gene
    homology analysis between the Panorpa X and a closely related Diptera species,
    and we assess the conservation of the Panorpa X-linked gene content with that
    of more distantly related insect species. We explored the structure of the Panorpa
    X by determining its repeat content, GC content, and nucleotide diversity. Finally,
    we used RNAseq data to detect the presence of dosage compensation in somatic tissues,
    as well as to explore gene expression tissue-specificity, and sex-bias in gene
    expression. We find high conservation of gene content between the mecopteran X
    and the dipteran Muller F element, as well as several shared biological features,
    such as the presence of dosage compensation and a low amount of genetic diversity,
    consistent with a low recombination rate. However, the 2 homologous X chromosomes

  text: The t-haplotype of mice is a classical model for autosomal transmission distortion.
    A largely non-recombining variant of the proximal region of chromosome 17, it
    is transmitted to more than 90% of the progeny of heterozygous males through the
    disabling of sperm carrying a standard chromosome. While extensive genetic and
    functional work has shed light on individual genes involved in drive, much less
    is known about the evolution and function of the rest of its hundreds of genes.
    Here, we characterize the sequence and expression of dozens of t-specific transcripts
    and of their chromosome 17 homologues. Many genes showed reduced expression of
    the t-allele, but an equal number of genes showed increased expression of their
    t-copy, consistent with increased activity or a newly evolved function. Genes
    on the t-haplotype had a significantly higher non-synonymous substitution rate
    than their homologues on the standard chromosome, with several genes harbouring
    dN/dS ratios above 1. Finally, the t-haplotype has acquired at least two genes
    from other chromosomes, which show high and tissue-specific expression. These
    results provide a first overview of the gene content of this selfish element,
    and support a more dynamic evolutionary scenario than expected of a large genomic
    region with almost no recombination.

  text: Eurasian brine shrimp (genus Artemia) have closely related sexual and asexual
    lineages of parthenogenetic females, which produce rare males at low frequencies.
    Although they are known to have ZW chromosomes, these are not well characterized,
    and it is unclear whether they are shared across the clade. Furthermore, the underlying
    genetic architecture of the transmission of asexuality, which can occur when rare
    males mate with closely related sexual females, is not well understood. We produced
    a chromosome-level assembly for the sexual Eurasian species A. sinica and characterized
    in detail the pair of sex chromosomes of this species. We combined this new assembly
    with short-read genomic data for the sexual species A. sp. Kazakhstan and several
    asexual lineages of A. parthenogenetica, allowing us to perform an in-depth characterization
    of sex-chromosome evolution across the genus. We identified a small differentiated
    region of the ZW pair that is shared by all sexual and asexual lineages, supporting
    the shared ancestry of the sex chromosomes. We also inferred that recombination
    suppression has spread to larger sections of the chromosome independently in the
    American and Eurasian lineages. Finally, we took advantage of a rare male, which
    we backcrossed to sexual females, to explore the genetic basis of asexuality.
    Our results suggest that parthenogenesis is likely partly controlled by a locus
    on the Z chromosome, highlighting the interplay between sex determination and
    asexuality.

  text: Schistosomes, the human parasites responsible for snail fever, are female-heterogametic.
    Different parts of their ZW sex chromosomes have stopped recombining in distinct
    lineages, creating “evolutionary strata” of various ages. Although the Z-chromosome
    is well characterized at the genomic and molecular level, the W-chromosome has
    remained largely unstudied from an evolutionary perspective, as only a few W-linked
    genes have been detected outside of the model species Schistosoma mansoni. Here,
    we characterize the gene content and evolution of the W-chromosomes of S. mansoni
    and of the divergent species S. japonicum. We use a combined RNA/DNA k-mer based
    pipeline to assemble around 100 candidate W-specific transcripts in each of the
    species. About half of them map to known protein coding genes, the majority homologous
    to S. mansoni Z-linked genes. We perform an extended analysis of the evolutionary
    strata present in the two species (including characterizing a previously undetected
    young stratum in S. japonicum) to infer patterns of sequence and expression evolution
    of W-linked genes at different time points after recombination was lost. W-linked
    genes show evidence of degeneration, including high rates of protein evolution
    and reduced expression. Most are found in young lineage-specific strata, with
    only a few high expression ancestral W-genes remaining, consistent with the progressive
    erosion of nonrecombining regions. Among these, the splicing factor u2af2 stands
    out as a promising candidate for primary sex determination, opening new avenues
    for understanding the molecular basis of the reproductive biology of this group.
