Abstract: In systems with female heterogamety (e.g. WZ/ZZ; female/male), the Z chromosome has several characteristics that distinguish it from autosomes, such as different effective population size (Ne) and hemizygosity in the heterogametic sex. These characteristics may lead to an accelerated rate of adaptive changes for the Z-linked genes compared to autosomal coding sequences, often referred to as the Fast-Z effect. This work is the first attempt to test the Fast Z effect in Lepidoptera by using two methodological approaches. These included comparative fluorescence in situ hybridizations and comparisons of substitution rates in coding sequences.
Keywords: divergence; fast Z effect; sex chromosomes; tortricids
