This paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly and transcriptomes for Megaselia abdita, revealing genomic and expression similarities and differences with Drosophila melanogaster.

The paper examines the anterior-posterior symmetry-breaking mechanism in Clogmia albipunctata, showing that its AD, maternal Cal-opa, promotes chromatin accessibility and anterior gene expression, similar to Drosophila's Bcd mechanism.

This study uses human and mouse models to show that Kabuki syndrome mutations cause an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory synapses, leading to synaptic dysfunction and intellectual disability.
