The paper examines the evolutionary diversification of screw joints in weevils, showing continuous variation and modular evolution rather than discrete types.

The paper demonstrates that high-quality DNA and high-resolution 3D tomograms can be obtained from the same insect specimens by optimizing irradiation conditions and prioritizing rapid scanning before DNA extraction.

Antscan provides 2,193 standardized whole-body 3D synchrotron micro-CT datasets across 792 ant species (212 genera), pairing morphological volumes with automated deep-learning segmentation and genome sequencing projects.

This paper develops a multimodal approach combining X-ray computed tomography and light-sheet fluorescence microscopy to visualize gene expression in 3D tissue context, applicable to in vitro models and model organisms.
