1.
Mackintosh C, Scott M, Reuter M, Pomiankowski A
Genetics
. 2024 May;
227(3).
PMID: 38709495
Inversions have been proposed to facilitate local adaptation, by linking together locally coadapted alleles at different loci. Prior work addressing this question theoretically has considered the spread of inversions in...

Meiotic drive does not impede success in sperm competition in the stalk-eyed fly, Teleopsis dalmanni
Bates S, Meade L, Pomiankowski A
Evolution
. 2023 Aug;
77(10):2326-2333.
PMID: 37615515
Male X-linked meiotic drive systems, which cause the degeneration of Y-bearing sperm, are common in the Diptera. Sperm killing is typically associated with fitness costs that arise from the destruction...

Bradshaw S, Meade L, Tarlton-Weatherall J, Pomiankowski A
Biol Lett
. 2022 Nov;
18(11):20220352.
PMID: 36448294
The sex ratio (SR) X-linked meiotic drive system in stalk-eyed flies destroys Y-bearing sperm. Unlike other SR systems, drive males do not suffer fertility loss. They have greatly enlarged testes...

Nunes Palmeira R, Colnaghi M, Harrison S, Pomiankowski A, Lane N
Proc Biol Sci
. 2022 Nov;
289(1986):20221469.
PMID: 36350219
The universal core of metabolism could have emerged from thermodynamically favoured prebiotic pathways at the origin of life. Starting with H and CO, the synthesis of amino acids and mixed...

Colnaghi M, Lane N, Pomiankowski A
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2022 Aug;
119(35):e2205041119.
PMID: 35994648
The transition from prokaryotic lateral gene transfer to eukaryotic meiotic sex is poorly understood. Phylogenetic evidence suggests that it was tightly linked to eukaryogenesis, which involved an unprecedented rise in...

Colnaghi M, Pomiankowski A, Lane N
Elife
. 2021 Jul;
10.
PMID: 34279226
Selection against deleterious mitochondrial mutations is facilitated by germline processes, lowering the risk of genetic diseases. How selection works is disputed: experimental data are conflicting and previous modeling work has...

Pomiankowski A, Wedell N
Curr Biol
. 2021 May;
31(10):R478-R481.
PMID: 34033770
A new study using artificial selection reveals that the size of the sex comb on the legs of male flies is genetically correlated with their fertility success under conditions of...

Mackintosh C, Pomiankowski A, Scott M
Genetics
. 2021 Mar;
217(1):1-11.
PMID: 33683360
X-linked meiotic drivers cause X-bearing sperm to be produced in excess by male carriers, leading to female-biased sex ratios. Here, we find general conditions for the spread and fixation of...

Finnegan S, Mondani M, Fowler K, Pomiankowski A
J Evol Biol
. 2021 Feb;
34(5):736-745.
PMID: 33559198
Meiotic drive systems are associated with low-frequency chromosomal inversions. These are expected to accumulate deleterious mutations due to reduced recombination and low effective population size. We test this prediction using...

PMID: 32990598
Prokaryotes acquire genes from the environment via lateral gene transfer (LGT). Recombination of environmental DNA can prevent the accumulation of deleterious mutations, but LGT was abandoned by the first eukaryotes...
