Jones W, Reifova R, Reif J, Synek P, Sima M, Munclinger P
Int J Parasitol . 2024 Mar; 54(7):357-366. PMID: 38460721
Parasites are a key driving force behind many ecological and evolutionary processes. Prevalence and diversity of parasites, as well as their effects on hosts, are not uniform across host species....

Garlovsky M, Whittington E, Albrecht T, Arenas-Castro H, Castillo D, Keais G, et al.
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol . 2023 Dec; 16(10). PMID: 38151330
How barriers to gene flow arise and are maintained are key questions in evolutionary biology. Speciation research has mainly focused on barriers that occur either before mating or after zygote...
3.
Vontzou N, Pei Y, Mueller J, Reifova R, Ruiz-Ruano F, Schlebusch S, et al.
Curr Opin Genet Dev . 2023 Sep; 83:102113. PMID: 37734346
Genetic conflicts can arise between components of the genome with different inheritance strategies. The germline-restricted chromosome (GRC) of songbirds shows unusual mitotic and meiotic transmission compared with the rest of...
4.
Reifova R, Ament-Velasquez S, Bourgeois Y, Coughlan J, Kulmuni J, Lipinska A, et al.
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol . 2023 Sep; 15(10). PMID: 37696577
Intrinsic postzygotic isolation typically appears as reduced viability or fertility of interspecific hybrids caused by genetic incompatibilities between diverged parental genomes. Dobzhansky-Muller interactions among individual genes, and chromosomal rearrangements causing...

Schlebusch S, Ridl J, Poignet M, Ruiz-Ruano F, Reif J, Pajer P, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Jul; 14(1):4579. PMID: 37516764
The germline-restricted chromosome (GRC) of songbirds represents a taxonomically widespread example of programmed DNA elimination. Despite its apparent indispensability, we still know very little about the GRC's genetic composition, function,...
6.
Mueller J, Schlebusch S, Pei Y, Poignet M, Vontzou N, Ruiz-Ruano F, et al.
Mol Biol Evol . 2023 Apr; 40(5). PMID: 37116210
The germline-restricted chromosome (GRC) is likely present in all songbird species but differs widely in size and gene content. This extra chromosome has been described as either a microchromosome with...

Poignet M, Barankova L, Reif J, Stopka P, Stopkova R, Frolikova M, et al.
Sci Rep . 2022 Dec; 12(1):22275. PMID: 36566302
Divergence in sperm phenotype and female reproductive environment may be a common source of postmating prezygotic (PMPZ) isolation between species. However, compared to other reproductive barriers it has received much...

Borodin P, Chen A, Forstmeier W, Fouche S, Malinovskaya L, Pei Y, et al.
Chromosome Res . 2022 Apr; 30(2-3):255-272. PMID: 35416568
Germline-restricted chromosomes (GRCs) are accessory chromosomes that occur only in germ cells. They are eliminated from somatic cells through programmed DNA elimination during embryo development. GRCs have been observed in...
9.
Sotelo-Munoz M, Poignet M, Albrecht T, Kauzal O, Dedukh D, Schlebusch S, et al.
Chromosoma . 2022 Apr; 131(1-2):77-86. PMID: 35389062
Passerine birds have a supernumerary chromosome in their germ cells called the germline-restricted chromosome (GRC). The GRC was first discovered more than two decades ago in zebra finch but recent...

Johnson Pokorna M, Reifova R
Front Genet . 2021 Dec; 12:727570. PMID: 34956308
B chromosomes represent additional chromosomes found in many eukaryotic organisms. Their origin is not completely understood but recent genomic studies suggest that they mostly arise through rearrangements and duplications from...
