The paper presents a chromosome-level genome and caste transcriptomes for Belonogaster juncea, revealing genomic diversity and caste-specific gene expression differences.

EXCON automates CAFE-based gene family expansion and contraction analysis, identifying 358 rapidly evolving families in primates, including DUX gene copy-number turnover.

The paper introduces a pipeline for assessing and comparing genome assembly quality using multiple metrics and tools.

This study identifies senescent cells as resembling developmental signaling centers by showing their SASP activates conserved developmental pathways across species.

The paper analyzes gene expression changes in paper wasps after queen loss, finding transcriptomic shifts without detectable phenotypic changes.

The paper shows that during zygotic genome activation, embryos exhibit temporary splicing failures in DNA damage response genes, regulated by Snrpb and Snrpd2, which reduce DNA damage response.
