Neo-sex chromosomes track the mitochondrial phylogeny and exhibit an extensive added stratum of recombination suppression in honeyeaters (Aves: Meliphagidae)

This dataset contains sequence alignments of loci used to conduct phylogenetic hypothesis testing of recombination suppression in honeyeaters (Aves: Meliphagidae). It also contains sequence information for probes used in cytogenetic analyses to test and validate fusions involving Chr 5 and the ancestral Z and W sex chromosomes leading to neo-sex chromosomes in honeyeaters.
