Despite extensive research on the evolution of sex, it is still unclear whether this switch represents a major transition requiring major molecular reorganization, and how convergent the changes involved are. In this study, we investigated the phylogenetic relationship and patterns of gene expression of sexual and asexual lineages of Eurasian Artemia brine shrimp, to assess how gene expression patterns are affected by the transition to asexuality. We find only a few genes that are consistently associated with the evolution of asexuality, suggesting that this shift may not require an extensive overhauling of the meiotic machinery. While genes with sex-biased expression have high rates of expression divergence within Eurasian Artemia, neither female- nor male-biased genes appear to show unusual evolutionary patterns after sexuality is lost, contrary to theoretical expectations.","lang":"eng"}],"type":"journal_article","file":[{"date_updated":"2021-10-22T11:48:02Z","success":1,"file_id":"10172","file_size":995806,"date_created":"2021-10-22T11:48:02Z","checksum":"76e7f253b7040bca2ad76f82bd7c45c0","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access","creator":"cchlebak","file_name":"2021_ProRoSocBBioSci_Huylmans.pdf"}],"day":"22","month":"09","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","date_updated":"2024-02-21T12:40:29Z","pmid":1,"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"},"quality_controlled":"1","title":"Transitions to asexuality and evolution of gene expression in Artemia brine shrimp","status":"public","related_material":{"link":[{"relation":"supplementary_material","url":"https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.5615488.v1"}],"record":[{"id":"9949","relation":"research_data","status":"public"}]},"oa_version":"Published Version","oa":1,"user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","date_created":"2021-10-21T07:46:06Z","publisher":"The Royal Society","scopus_import":"1","article_type":"original","citation":{"ama":"Huylmans AK, Macon A, Hontoria F, Vicoso B.
