The paper introduces a citizen science project using Drosophila to study urban biodiversity, showing it can collect ecological data and raise public awareness.

This study examines urban Drosophila communities in Vienna, finding a 50% decline in species richness and replacement of native species by neobiots, highlighting their potential as biodiversity indicators.

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.

AmpliPiper is a software pipeline for analyzing multilocus amplicon-seq data, enabling accurate and sensitive DNA barcoding with Oxford Nanopore sequencing.

The paper introduces Multi-GBS, a high-throughput GBS protocol for conifer genomes, and demonstrates its ability to call over a million variants across multiple populations with minimal technical bias.
