This study examines the distribution of fitness effects (DFE) across eleven animal species, finding that DFE co-varies with phylogeny and that mammals have more deleterious mutations than insects and birds.

The paper shows that in queenless bumble bee colonies, workers show increased behavioral variation and take on influential roles, leading to a shift from centralized to decentralized social networks.

pipemake creates modular Snakemake workflows for reproducible biological data analysis, reducing hands-on time and enabling flexible pipeline adaptation.

The paper identifies enhancer activity differences between social and solitary populations of Lasioglossum albipes, linking cis-regulatory variation to social behavior evolution.

The paper shows that developmental transcriptomes predict adult social behaviors in sweat bees, linking environmental temperature to social structure through transcriptomic differences.

The Pop-gen Pipeline Platform provides a standardized software solution to streamline population genomic analyses by automating workflows and reducing computational barriers.
