The paper reports the genome of Gonipterus sp. n. 2, a Eucalyptus snout beetle, and identifies unique gene families and cytochrome P450 genes.

The paper models CRISPR gene drive systems in Sirex noctilio to assess their effectiveness in population control using historical data and simulation.

This study analyzes the genetic diversity and invasion history of the woodwasp Sirex noctilio and its fungal symbiont Amylostereum areolatum in Australasia using population genetic data, revealing low genetic diversity and clonal populations linked to biosecurity measures.

This study presents chromosome-level genome assemblies of Diplodia sapinea, identifying two accessory chromosomes that show rapid evolution and potential horizontal transfer.

The paper compares genomes of Botryosphaeriaceae fungi to identify genetic elements related to their plant pathogenicity, finding high abundance of hydrolytic enzymes and secondary metabolite gene clusters.
