The paper develops a method to detect recombination breakpoints and signs of human-made manipulation in viral sequences, finding no evidence of such manipulation in SARS-CoV-1, MERS-CoV, or SARS-CoV-2.

The paper shows that the Illumina Stranded mRNA protocol can generate sense reads for low U-content transcripts, affecting gene expression estimates.

This study measures adhesive and mechanical properties of Drosophila glue across 25 species, finding variation linked to ecological factors and identifying D. hydei as a promising model for bioadhesives.

The paper estimates the probability of CRISPR-based gene drive contamination in non-target species using a quantitative model and discusses strategies to reduce this risk.

Gephebase compiles genotype-phenotype relationships from natural and domesticated eukaryotic variation to support evolutionary genetics research and applications.

The paper assesses the robustness of bristle number to genetic and environmental variation in Drosophila melanogaster, finding differences in robustness across bristle types and effects of temperature and miR-9a on trait variance.

The paper examines predictions about genetic loci of past evolution, focusing on retrodictions based on repeated genetic changes across taxa.
