Peptidomics-Based Phylogeny and Biogeography of Mantophasmatodea (Hexapoda) [PDF]

Systematic Biology, 2012
The insect order Mantophasmatodea was described in 2002. Prior to that time, several generations of entomologists had assumed that all major insect taxa were known; thus, its description was a sensation for zoologists. Since then, a surprising abundance and species diversity of this taxon have been found, particularly in the winter rainfall region of ...

Collembolan Transcriptomes Highlight Molecular Evolution of Hexapods and Provide Clues on the Adaptation to Terrestrial Life.

PLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundCollembola (springtails) represent a soil-living lineage of hexapods in between insects and crustaceans. Consequently, their genomes may hold key information on the early processes leading to evolution of Hexapoda from a crustacean ancestor ...

Phylotranscriptomics to Bring the Understudied into the Fold: Monophyletic Ostracoda, Fossil Placement, and Pancrustacean Phylogeny [PDF]

, 2012
An ambitious, yet fundamental goal for comparative biology is to understand the evolutionary relationships for all of life. However, many important taxonomic groups have remained recalcitrant to inclusion into broader scale studies.

Beeinflussung der Augenentwicklung und Seidenfasermodifikation bei Spinnen mittels CRISPR‐Cas

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Spinnen weisen einzigartige Merkmale auf, die in verschiedensten Forschungsbereichen von größtem Interesse sind. Das gezielte Verändern von Genen bietet neue Möglichkeiten, die Forschung voranzutreiben. In dieser Studie entwickelten wir ein CRISPR‐Cas9‐Protokoll für Spinnen, das Gen‐Knock‐outs/Knock‐ins ermöglicht, um zum einen Genfunktionen zu ...

Incongruent phylogenetic hypotheses and character conflicts in morphology : the root and early branches of the hexapodan tree [PDF]

, 2008
Before the turn of the millenium the investigation of phylogenetic relationships was revolutionized by two major inputs, the use of molecular sequence data for phylogenetic reconstruction, paralleled by the sophistication of computer aided reconstruction

LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]

, 2013
Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is

A new story of four Hexapoda classes: Protura as the sister to all other hexapods

bioRxiv
Insects represent the most diverse animal group, yet previous phylogenetic analyses based on the morphological and molecular data have failed to agree on the evolutionary relationships of early insects and their six-legged relatives (together ...

Spider Eye Development Editing and Silk Fiber Engineering Using CRISPR‐Cas

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Spiders exhibit unique traits with significant implications for a diversity of fields, and gene editing provides new opportunities for advancing research in these areas. In this study, we developed a CRISPR‐Cas9 protocol for spiders, enabling gene knock‐outs/knock‐ins to study gene function and introduce new phenotypic traits. Abstract CRISPR‐Cas9 gene
