Transcriptomic and functional genetic evidence for distinct ecophysiological responses across complex life cycle stages

P. J. Freda, J. Toxopeus, E. J. Dowle, Z. M. Ali, N. Heter, R. Lambert-Collier, I. Sower, J. C. Tucker, T. J. Morgan, G. J. Ragland

The paper uses RNAseq and RNAi to show that thermal physiological responses in Drosophila larvae and adults are largely distinct at the gene expression level.

Horizontal transfer of prokaryotic cytolethal distending toxin B genes to eukaryotes

K. I. Verster, J. H. Wisecaver, R. P. Duncan, M. Karageorgi, A. D. Gloss, E. Armstrong, D. K. Price, A. R. Menon, Z. M. Ali, N. K. Whiteman

The paper reports the horizontal transfer of the cdtB gene, encoding a DNase, from bacteriophages to eukaryotic insect genomes, where it retains DNase activity and may serve as a defensive mechanism against parasitoid wasps.
