This paper presents a high-quality de novo genome assembly of the coconut rhinoceros beetle using nanopore sequencing, achieving high contiguity and accuracy.

The paper identifies a novel jingmenvirus, IFJV1, in Australian sugarcane soldier fly larvae and demonstrates its replication in the host but not in vertebrate cells.

The paper reports the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Oryctes rhinoceros using long-read Nanopore sequencing and validates its annotation and phylogenetic utility.

The paper detects Deformed wing virus (DWV) in the Vietnamese Walking Stick Medauroidea extradentata using RNAseq data and constructs its complete genome sequence.

The paper analyzes the genetic structure of Coconut Rhinoceros Beetle populations and the prevalence of their biocontrol agent across the South Pacific, finding multiple mitochondrial lineages and high viral infection rates.

The paper reports the complete genome sequence of an Oryctes rhinoceros Nudivirus isolate from the Solomon Islands, showing high similarity to a Philippine isolate but with amino acid differences compared to a Malaysian strain.
