Antscan provides 2,193 standardized whole-body 3D synchrotron micro-CT datasets across 792 ant species (212 genera), pairing morphological volumes with automated deep-learning segmentation and genome sequencing projects.

This study compares genome evolution in two stingless bee species, showing retroelement expansions drive heterochromatin differences and chromosomal rearrangements.

This study develops epigenetic clocks using N6-methyladenine (6mA) to predict chronological and biological age in bumblebees, showing that 6mA patterns correlate with age and respond to lifespan extension.

The paper compares the transcriptomic heat stress responses of desert and temperate ants to identify convergent and specific adaptations to thermal stress.

The paper presents chromosome-level genome assemblies for two hybridogenetic lineages of Cataglyphis hispanica using long-read sequencing and 3C data, enabling studies of thermal adaptation and reproductive systems.
