  • Notes: Spotlight article about VeaFiJa2025: In this study, Vea et al. combined cytological analysis, genome sequencing, and gene expression profiling to get a rare and valuable glimpse into the mechanisms underlying selfish chromosome behavior, a topic that until recently has largely relied on cytogenetics observation. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tig.2025.05.008
