Journal ArticleDOI
Sex reversal triggers the rapid transition from genetic to temperature-dependent sex
Clare E. Holleley,Denis O’Meally,Stephen D. Sarre,Jennifer A. Marshall Graves,Jennifer A. Marshall Graves,Tariq Ezaz,Kazumi Matsubara,Kazumi Matsubara,Bhumika Azad,Bhumika Azad,Xiuwen Zhang,Arthur Georges +11 more
TL;DR: The instantaneous creation of a lineage of ZZ temperature-sensitive animals reveals a novel, climate-induced pathway for the rapid transition between genetic and temperature-dependent sex determination, and adds to concern about adaptation to rapid global climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex chromosome evolution in lizards: independent origins and rapid transitions
TL;DR: It is suggested that lizard sex determination may be much more the result of an interplay between sex chromosomes and temperature than previously thought, such that the sex determination mode is influenced by the nature of heterogamety as well as temperature sensitivity and the stage of sex chromosome degeneration.
Journal Article
Phylogeny of the Decapoda reptantia: Resolution using three molecular loci and morphology
S T Ahyong,Denis O’Meally +1 more
TL;DR: The controversial interrelationships of the major clades of the reptant decapods are resolved by simultaneous analysis of 16S, 18S, and 28S rRNA sequences in combination with morphology, including the first molecular data for the controversial Polychelidae, Glypheidae, and Enoplometopidae.

TL;DR: The assembly of the genome of the koala provides insights into its adaptive biology and identifies gene expansions that contribute to its ability to detoxify eucalyptus-derived compounds and perceive plant secondary metabolites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Widespread convergence in toxin resistance by predictable molecular evolution
Beata Ujvari,Beata Ujvari,Nicholas R. Casewell,Kartik Sunagar,Kevin Arbuckle,Wolfgang Wüster,Nathan Lo,Denis O’Meally,Christa Beckmann,Glenn F. King,Evelyne Deplazes,Thomas Madsen,Thomas Madsen,Thomas Madsen +13 more
TL;DR: Evidence of constrained convergent molecular evolution across the metazoan tree of life is provided by showing that resistance to toxic cardiac glycosides produced by plants and bufonid toads is mediated by similar molecular changes to the sodium-potassium-pump in insects, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals.
