River network connectivity and postglacial history shape pollen- and seed-mediated gene flow across riparian populations of Myricaria germanica.

Tania Chavarria Pizarro, Christoph Scheidegger, Kailin Sun, Silke Werth

The paper investigates how river network connectivity and postglacial history influence pollen- and seed-mediated gene flow in Myricaria germanica across Central European river catchments.

Epigenetic reprogramming by 5-aza-dC alters gene methylation and suppresses aggression in founding queens of the California harvester ant Pogonomyrmex californicus.

Tania Chavarria Pizarro, Mohammed Errbii, Benne Köster…·Juergen Gadau

This study shows that DNA demethylation with 5-aza-dC reduces aggression in founding queens of P. californicus, suggesting an epigenetic role in social behavior.

Castes and developmental stages of the harvester ant P. californicus differ in genome-wide and gene specific DNA methylation

Tania Chavarria Pizarro, Mohammed Errbii, Janina L. Rinke…·Jürgen Gadau

This study examines DNA methylation patterns in different castes and developmental stages of the harvester ant P. californicus, finding significant variation and correlations with gene expression and metabolic activity.
