This study shows that recombination suppression through chromosomal rearrangements preceded fissiparous asexuality in planarians, reducing the costs of asexuality.

Degenerate COI primers combined with histology, karyology and transcriptomics raise the known Croatian freshwater planarian species from eight to sixteen and describe Dendrocoelum pigmentatum sp. nov.

This paper presents chromosome-scale genome assemblies and regulatory element annotations for planarians, revealing conservation of regulatory regions despite rapid structural divergence.
