The paper presents two chromosome-scale assemblies of the Black bean aphid Aphis fabae using HiFi and Hi-C, revealing expanded UDP-glycosyltransferases linked to insecticide tolerance.

This study identifies parallel genomic mechanisms, including structural variation and functional pathways, in geothermally warmed stickleback populations adapting to increased temperatures.

The study examines how genetic diversity in aphid populations affects the transmission efficiency of barley yellow dwarf virus, finding significant variation in R. padi but not S. avenae.

This study presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly of a parasitoid-resistant potato aphid clonal line and analyzes UK aphid populations to reveal genotype-specific traits and clonal diversity.
