The paper identifies 60 new moderate risk genes for autism by integrating de novo and inherited variants across 42,607 cases and 236,000 controls.

This paper completes the linear assembly of human chromosome 8, resolves long-standing gaps, and analyzes the evolutionary history of its centromeric regions across great apes.

The paper presents the first genome sequence for a thysanopteran insect, providing insights into its biology and evolution as a crop pest.

The paper identifies ultra-rare inherited mutations that are younger and preferentially transmitted to autism probands, revealing novel candidate genes and functional networks.

The paper analyzes gene and protein domain content changes across 76 arthropod genomes to understand evolutionary patterns and their association with phenotypic adaptations.

The paper presents the milkweed bug genome and comparative analyses to study molecular evolution and feeding ecology in Hemiptera.

The paper reports the sequencing and manual annotation of the Gerris buenoi genome, identifying gene expansions linked to adaptations for aquatic life.

The paper analyzes the house spider genome to identify an ancient whole-genome duplication shared by spiders and scorpions, distinct from horseshoe crab duplications.
