Segregation Distorter (SD) is a meiotic drive supergene complex on chromosome 2 of Drosophila melanogaster. We sequenced 10 SD chromosomes sampled from Zambia, the putative ancestral range of D. melan
Here we study satellite DNA in Drosophila virilis and its sister species. The D. virilis genome contains abundant 7bp satellites that make up an estimated 40% of the genome.
