This study investigates the evolutionary role of psilocybin by testing its effects on Drosophila development and behavior, finding developmental stress and reduced survival but no receptor-specific response.

The paper maps resistance loci for three anthelmintic classes in a parasitic nematode, identifies novel alleles for benzimidazoles and levamisole, and implicates cky-1 in ivermectin resistance.

The paper identifies genome-wide sexually antagonistic variants in D. melanogaster and finds they are subject to balancing selection, suggesting constraints on sexual dimorphism evolution.

The paper resequences the whole genome of a Drosophila melanogaster population using next-generation sequencing and makes the data publicly available.

The paper investigates how removing sexual selection affects female fecundity and gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster, identifying candidate genes involved in the response to mating systems.
