This study shows that transposable elements (TEs) in Drosophila melanogaster cause phenotypic variation and affect responses to environmental changes.

This study uses long-read RNA-seq to identify and quantify transposable element transcripts at the copy level in Drosophila germline tissues, revealing differences in their transcriptional landscape between testes and ovaries.

This study shows that transposable elements (TEs) are involved in a dual response to Drosophila C Virus infection, where TE control is released and TE transcripts help reduce viral replication.

This study quantifies the species-specific impact of transposable elements on gene expression and histone marks in Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans using transcriptomic and epigenomic data.

ChimeraTE detects chimeric transcripts from genes and transposable elements using two modes, identifying ~1.12% of genes generating such transcripts, with ~23% absent from the reference genome.

The paper identifies stable reference genes for qRT-PCR in insect endosymbiotic models using transcriptomic data from Sitophilus oryzae.

The paper examines gene expression coordination between host and endosymbiont during the life cycle of the cereal weevil, identifying shared regulatory functions involved in symbiosis dynamics.

The paper presents the genome of Sitophilus oryzae, revealing high transposable element content and host-symbiont metabolic interactions.

The paper uses bioinformatic analyses of RNA sequencing data to identify host and viral factors involved in SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis, including differentially expressed genes and viral sequence variants linked to disease severity.
