Air pollution modifies key colonization factors of the beneficial bee gut symbiont Snodgrassella alvi and disrupts the bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) gut microbiome.

H. R. Sampson, N. Allcock, E. B. Mallon, J. M. Ketley, J. A. Morrissey

This study shows black carbon exposure alters the gut microbiome of bumblebees by affecting the beneficial bacterium Snodgrassella alvi and changing the abundance of core gut bacteria.

Lack of paternal silencing and ecotype-specific expression in head and body lice hybrids.

H. Marshall, A. G. de la Filia, R. Cavalieri, E. B. Mallon, J. M. Clark, L. Ross

This study shows hybrid human lice males exhibit biparental gene expression, contradicting paternal genome elimination, and identifies ecotype-specific expression and maternally-biased genes.

Caste- and sex-specific DNA methylation in a bumblebee is associated with codon degeneracy.

H. Marshall, M. T. Nicholas, J. S. van Zweden, F. Wäckers, L. Ross, T. Wenseleers, E. B. Mallon

The paper examines DNA methylation patterns in bumblebees, finding caste- and sex-specific methylation associated with codon degeneracy and potential mutagenic effects.

Sexual morph specialisation in a trioecious nematode balances opposing selective forces.

S. Adams, P. Pathak, M. Kittelmann, A. R. C. Jones, E. B. Mallon, A. Pires da Silva

This study shows that selfing and outcrossing sexual morphs in Auanema freiburgensis are specialised for distinct life cycle roles, balancing opposing selective forces and enabling stable coexistence.

Bumblebee worker castes show differences in allele-specific DNA methylation and allele-specific expression.

H. Marshall, A. R. C. Jones, Z. N. Lonsdale, E. B. Mallon

The paper identifies allele-specific expression and DNA methylation in bumblebee castes, finding no direct link between methylation and expression bias.

Parent of origin gene expression in the bumblebee, Bombus terrestris, supports Haig's kinship theory for the evolution of genomic imprinting.

H. Marshall, J. S. van Zweden, A. Van Geystelen, K. Benaets, F. Wäckers, E. B. Mallon, T. Wenseleers

The paper tests Haig's kinship theory for genomic imprinting in bumblebees, finding balanced maternally and paternally biased expressed alleles, with strong support for the theory.

The effects of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid on gene expression and DNA methylation in the buff-tailed bumblebee Bombus terrestris

P. S. A. Bebane, B. J. Hunt, M. Pegoraro, A. R. C. Jones, H. Marshall, E. Rosato, E. B. Mallon

This study examines the effects of imidacloprid on gene expression and DNA methylation in bumblebees, finding differential gene expression but no changes in DNA methylation.

Methylation and Gene Expression Differences Between Reproductive Castes of Bumblebee Workers.

H. Marshall, Z. N. Lonsdale, E. B. Mallon

This study compares DNA methylation and gene expression between reproductive castes of bumblebees, finding caste-specific methylation but no direct link to gene expression differences.

Allele specific expression and methylation in the bumblebee, Bombus terrestris

Z. N. Lonsdale, K. D. Lee, M. Kyriakidou, H. E. Amarasinghe, D. Nathanael, C. O'Connor, E. B. Mallon

This study investigates allele-specific expression and methylation in bumblebees, finding genes with monoallelic methylation and expression, and identifying allele-specific expression in RNA-seq libraries.

Deleterious mutation accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana pollen genes: a role for a recent relaxation of selection

M. C. Harrison, E. B. Mallon, D. Twell, R. L. Hammond

The paper compares selection strength on pollen and sporophytic genes in Arabidopsis thaliana, finding relaxed selection on pollen genes after the species became self-compatible, leading to more deleterious mutations.
