    Humic-acid-driven escape from eye parasites revealed by RNA-seq and target-specific metabarcoding

    Next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are extensively used to dissect the molecular mechanisms of host-parasite interactions in human pathogens. However, ecological studies have yet to fully exploit th...

    Map** of quantitative trait loci for life history traits segregating within common frog populations

    The evolution of complex traits is often shaped by adaptive divergence. However, very little is known about the number, effect size, and location of the genomic regions influencing the variation of these trait...

    Invasion genomics: genoty**-by-sequencing approach reveals regional genetic structure and signatures of temporal selection in an introduced mud crab

    Introduced species can cause large impacts on communities and ecosystems. To prevent invasions and the impacts of invasions, a better understanding of species-specific invasion routes, establishment processes,...

    The Glanville fritillary genome retains an ancient karyotype and reveals selective chromosomal fusions in Lepidoptera

    Previous studies have reported that chromosome synteny in Lepidoptera has been well conserved, yet the number of haploid chromosomes varies widely from 5 to 223. Here we report the genome (393 Mb) of the Glanv...

    Double-restriction-site-associated DNA (dRAD) approach for fast microsatellite marker development in Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis L.)

    Seventeen polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for Eurasian perch, using double-restriction-site-associated DNA approach combined with Ion Torrent PGM™ sequencing. In test panel of 48 individuals ...
