Surveying armadillo and bat trypanosomes by DNA metabarcoding with Oxford Nanopore Technologies sequencing: the importance of fine-tuning parameters to identify mixed infections

Christian Miguel Pinto, Manuel Calvopiña, Sofía Ocaña-Mayorga…·Pablo Jarrín–V

This study uses DNA metabarcoding to analyze Trypanosoma infections in armadillos and bats, finding that strict bioinformatic filtering reduces apparent coinfections, supporting competitive exclusion.

From diet to defense: serpin duplication and gene-expression evolution as putative contributors to poison-frog alkaloid sequestration

Jeffrey L. Coleman, Vincent S. Le, Genrietta Yagudayeva…·David C. Cannatella

This study investigates the molecular mechanisms of alkaloid sequestration in poison frogs by analyzing serpin gene family evolution and liver gene expression.
