The paper identifies gene and allele-specific expression patterns underlying electric signal divergence in African weakly electric fish, highlighting cis-regulatory differences in KCNJ2 and KLF5.

The paper investigates pharmacophagy in the turnip sawfly, showing that conspecific nibbling transfers clerodanoids and upregulates metabolic pathways, despite metabolic costs.

The paper uses dual RNA-seq to study gene expression changes in parasitoid wasps and their aphid hosts during infection, revealing genetic and plastic adaptations to symbiont-conferred resistance.

The paper identifies a new lineage of segmented RNA viruses using small RNA data from Drosophila and meta-transcriptomic datasets, showing evidence of vertebrate infections.
