So far, little known about how this genetic affects among closely related tissues during population divergence. To address question, we analyzed midgut, hindgut, Malpighian tubule as microbiome composition two gut four Drosophila melanogaster strains their F1 hybrids from divergent populations: one derived, European range ancestral, African range. In both transcriptome data, detected extensive tissue- background-specific effects, including effects background on overall tissue specificity. Tissue-specific were typically stronger than although not more similar each other tubules. An examination allele specific revealed that, while tissue-specific expressed differentially between populations conserved expression, effects. Despite there being highly variable architecture, observation was robust across backgrounds, suggesting be spatially fine-tuned better divergence yielding new insights into evolution.
