The paper presents chromosome-level genome assemblies for five Tephritid species using long-read sequencing, short-read polishing, and Hi-C scaffolding.

The paper identifies lncRNAs in the Asian tiger mosquito that regulate reproductive traits and shows their impact on fecundity and hatching rates.

This study uses Oxford Nanopore long-read RNA-Seq to characterize the transcriptome of the olive fruit fly embryo during early development, revealing novel genes and transcriptional dynamics.

The paper analyzes the reproductive system of the olive fruit fly through transcriptomic and genomic studies, identifying genes involved in mating and potential targets for pest control.

The paper assembles the olive fruit fly genome using linked-reads and long-read technologies, achieving a highly contiguous Y-chromosome assembly.

The paper identifies a Y-linked gene, MoY, essential for male sex determination in medflies and shows its conservation across multiple fruit fly species, enabling potential genetic control strategies.
