The paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly for the chilli thrips Scirtothrips dorsalis, providing genomic resources for studying its biology and pest status.

The paper reports the genome sequence of Phymata mystica, an ambush bug, and identifies conserved venom proteins, providing insights into venom evolution in Heteroptera.

This study investigates how scale insects evolved alternative sex determination systems by analyzing genomic changes across transitions from X-chromosomal sex determination to other systems.

The paper investigates sperm dimorphism in evergreen bagworm moths and finds no evidence of non-fertilizing sperm, proposing new hypotheses for its evolution and function.

The paper presents the de novo genome assembly of the hibiscus mealybug, Nipaecoccus viridis, and reports gene count and repetitive element composition.

The paper presents the genome sequence of the tuliptree scale insect, Toumeyella liriodendri, and uses it to study soft scale phylogeny and karyotype evolution.
