Long-read sequencing reveals genomic landscape of structural variants in a major disease vector

The paper uses long-read sequencing to identify structural variants in Culex quinquefasciatus, revealing their potential role in insecticide resistance and adaptation.

Divergence in the Pelagic Zone: Genomic Signatures of Speciation and Adaptation in the Ctenophore Mnemiopsis

This study identifies two distinct species of Mnemiopsis in the US Atlantic coast using genomic analysis, revealing divergence driven by Pleistocene climate transitions and oceanographic changes.

Soft selective sweeps predominate in the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti

The paper uses machine learning to detect soft and hard selective sweeps in Aedes aegypti, finding soft sweeps are more common, suggesting rapid adaptation to environmental pressures.
