Apollo 3 is a new manual genome annotation tool that integrates with JBrowse 2, enabling multi-genome editing and synteny visualization.

The paper introduces two computational methods, R-CQ and KAMY, to detect sex chromosome sequences in Tephritid pests and evaluates their performance on chromosome-level assemblies.

This study identifies horizontal gene transfer events in Armillaria fungi that contribute to plant biomass degradation and pathogenicity.

The paper assembles the olive fruit fly genome using linked-reads and long-read technologies, achieving a highly contiguous Y-chromosome assembly.

The paper functionally characterizes insect SNMPs using bioinformatics and experimental techniques, identifying a novel SNMP3 gene family and a molecular model for pheromone detection in silkworms.
