The paper identifies genomic signatures of positive selection and relaxed constraints in Dysdera spiders with convergent dietary specialisation on woodlice.

The paper investigates genome size reduction in island-dwelling Dysdera spiders, finding TE loss and non-adaptive mechanisms drive genome contraction.

The paper uses DEST 2.0 to analyze genetic variation in D. melanogaster across continents and time, identifying adaptation patterns and stable spatial genetic structures.

This study examines genetic diversity and recombination in an endemic spider from the Canary Islands, finding high levels of nucleotide diversity and identifying genomic regions under positive selection.

BITACORA improves gene family annotation in genome assemblies by integrating sequence similarity searches and scripts to correct and identify new gene copies.

This paper presents the avocado genome, revealing its phylogenetic position, introgressive hybridization, and pathogen-driven gene space adaptation.
