The paper investigates the loss of TMC and CIB genes in schizophoran flies during the Paleogene, linking it to the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum.

The paper presents the first genome assembly of Potamopyrgus antipodarum, revealing a recent whole-genome duplication and its potential role in asexuality transitions.

This paper sequences and analyzes the genomes of two New Zealand snail species, showing their genetic similarity, introgression between them, and their relationship to the invasive P. antipodarum.

The paper presents a draft genome assembly of the parasitoid wasp Diachasma alloeum and identifies genomic features related to ecological speciation and asexual reproduction.

The paper investigates independent pseudogenization of meiosis genes in Eurotiomycete fungi, finding no direct link between Pch2 loss and other gene losses but evidence of molecular coevolution between Msh4, Msh5, and Zip3.
