Inversion evolutionary rates might limit the experimental identification of inversion breakpoints in non-model species

Abstract Chromosomal inversions are structural changes that alter gene order but generally not gene content in the affected region. In Drosophila, extensive cytological studies revealed the widespread character of inversion polymorphism, with evidence for its adaptive character. In Drosophila subobs...
