This study identifies candidate genes associated with metallic color variation in ground beetles and links color adaptation to environmental factors.

The paper analyzes spatiotemporal trends in Colorado potato beetle abundance using multi-year scouting data and climate factors to improve pest management predictions.

This study reconstructs the demographic history of blacklegged ticks in the northern U.S. using genomic data, finding multiple independent populations that expanded after the Last Glacial Maximum.

The study investigates how abiotic factors influence microbiome assembly in Hawaiian Drosophila, finding that elevation, temperature, rainfall, and evapotranspiration drive microbial community composition more than phylogenetic relatedness.

The paper examines how insect size responses to climate change vary with elevation and seasonal timing, finding size shifts linked to temperature changes and life history strategies.

This study investigates the evolutionary history of alpine ground beetles, finding evidence of past admixture and rapid physiological evolution during glacial climate change.

This study identifies genomic features underlying compact genomes and environmental stress tolerance in chironomid midges by analyzing phylogenomic data and gene family evolution.

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 genome of the Colorado potato beetle to study its rapid evolutionary changes, herbivory adaptations, and insecticide resistance mechanisms.
