This study shows that prolonged viviparity in cockroaches improves progeny survival during dry periods by enhancing maternal dehydration resistance and post-birth survival.

The paper identifies common genomic pathways involved in viviparity across insects, suggesting convergent evolution mechanisms shared with vertebrates.

The paper sequences and annotates the genomes of two sand fly species, identifying genes related to vector biology and population structure to aid in leishmaniasis control.

The paper presents the first genome sequence for a thysanopteran insect, providing insights into its biology and evolution as a crop pest.

This study provides insights into the biology of the stable fly by combining genome sequencing, microbiome analysis, and RNA-seq to identify genes related to reproduction, host interactions, and pest control.

The paper presents the milkweed bug genome and comparative analyses to study molecular evolution and feeding ecology in Hemiptera.

The paper presents a comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina species, identifying genetic features related to their unique biology and vectorial capacity.

The paper reports the sequencing and manual annotation of the Gerris buenoi genome, identifying gene expansions linked to adaptations for aquatic life.

The paper presents the genome of the Colorado potato beetle to study its rapid evolutionary changes, herbivory adaptations, and insecticide resistance mechanisms.

This study shows dehydration increases blood feeding and activity in mosquitoes, likely to obtain water, and may enhance disease transmission.
