the insect chemoreceptor superfamily in drosophila pseudoobscura: molecular evolution of ecologically-relevant genes over 25 million years.	the insect chemoreceptor superfamily, consisting of the odorant receptor (or) and gustatory receptor (gr) families, exhibits patterns of evolution ranging from highly conserved proteins to lineage-specific gene subfamily expansions when compared across insect suborders and orders. here their evolution across the timespan of 25 million years is examined which yield orthologous divergences ranging from 5-50%. they also reveal the beginnings of lineage-specific gene subfamilies as multiple duplicat ...	0	19613461
comparative genome sequencing of drosophila pseudoobscura: chromosomal, gene, and cis-element evolution.	we have sequenced the genome of a second drosophila species, drosophila pseudoobscura, and compared this to the genome sequence of drosophila melanogaster, a primary model organism. throughout evolution the vast majority of drosophila genes have remained on the same chromosome arm, but within each arm gene order has been extensively reshuffled, leading to a minimum of 921 syntenic blocks shared between the species. a repetitive sequence is found in the d. pseudoobscura genome at many junctions b ...	0	15632085
molecular evolution of drosophila cdc6, an essential dna replication-licensing gene, suggests an adaptive choice of replication origins.	increased size of eukaryotic genomes necessitated the use of multiple origins of dna replication, and presumably selected for their efficient spacing to ensure rapid dna replication. the sequence of these origins remains undetermined in metazoan genomes, leaving important questions about the selective constraints acting on replication origins unanswered. we have chosen to study the evolution of proteins that recognize and define these origins every cell cycle, as a surrogate to the direct analys ...	0	18618020
