Karyotypic evolution in a diverse primate clade and the role of chromosomal fissions as barriers to gene flow

This study investigates chromosomal fissions in guenons, finding they may act as barriers to gene flow but with inconsistent evidence across species.

Evolutionary history of alpha satellite DNA in Cercopithecini: comparative cytogenomics highlights the diversification pattern of primate centromere repeats

This study analyzes alpha satellite DNA evolution in Cercopithecini primates, finding that younger families expand at centromeres while older ones shift to pericentromeres and face extinction.

The European Reference Genome Atlas: piloting a decentralised approach to equitable biodiversity genomics

The paper describes the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) pilot project, which tests a decentralized model for producing high-quality reference genomes across 98 European species.

Comparative analysis of the caecal tonsil transcriptome in two hen lines experimentally infected with Salmonella Enteritidis

The paper compares gene expression in caecal tonsils of two chicken lines infected with Salmonella Enteritidis to identify genes and pathways associated with differences in bacterial carriage.

Improved basic cytogenetics challenges holocentricity of butterfly chromosomes

The paper challenges the holocentricity of butterfly chromosomes by showing acrocentric and sub-metacentric chromosomes through improved cytogenetic techniques.
