Revealing the genetic mechanisms underpinning the parasite-induced water-seeking behaviour of insects through RNA-seq

This study uses RNA-seq to analyze gene expression changes in infected earwigs and nematodes, identifying differentially expressed genes and shared transcription factor motifs linked to parasite-induced water-seeking behavior.

Comparative genomics of parasitoid lifestyle as exemplified by Mermithidae and Nematomorpha

This study compares the genomes of parasitoid worms Mermithidae and Nematomorpha to identify genetic features linked to their parasitoid lifestyle and host manipulation.

tombRaider - improved species and haplotype recovery from metabarcoding data through artefact and pseudogene exclusion.

tombRaider improves species and haplotype identification in metabarcoding by removing artefacts and pseudogenes, enhancing data accuracy and reliability.
