This study integrates genomics and transcriptomics to identify molecular changes in vampire bats adapted to blood-feeding, revealing shifts in gene expression and function across multiple biological pathways.

TOGA2 improves gene annotation and ortholog identification across vertebrate genomes, achieving higher completeness and accuracy than existing methods.

The paper tests ancestral diet in Phyllostomidae bats using phylogenetic models, finding support for ancestral omnivory and early evolution of fruit feeding.

SLRfinder identifies candidate sex-linked regions using linkage disequilibrium clustering, outperforming SATC in labile sex chromosomes.
