Exploring the ageing methylome in the model insect, Nasonia vitripennis

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Abstract Background The ageing process is a multifaceted phenomenon marked by the gradual deterioration of cellular and organismal functions, accompanied by an elevated susceptibility to diseases. The intricate interplay between genetic and environmental factors complicates research, particularly in ...

Allele-Specific Transcriptome and Methylome Analysis Reveals Stable Inheritance and Cis-Regulation of DNA Methylation in Nasonia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2016
Gene expression divergence between closely related species could be attributed to both cis- and trans- DNA sequence changes during evolution, but it is unclear how the evolutionary dynamics of epigenetic marks are regulated.

Recombination and Its Impact on the Genome of the Haplodiploid Parasitoid Wasp Nasonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Homologous meiotic recombination occurs in most sexually reproducing organisms, yet its evolutionary advantages are elusive. Previous research explored recombination in the honeybee, a eusocial hymenopteran with an exceptionally high genome-wide ...

Circadian rhythms differ between sexes and closely related species of Nasonia wasps. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Activity rhythms in 24 h light-dark cycles, constant darkness, and constant light conditions were analyzed in four different Nasonia species for each sex separately.

Haploid Females in the Parasitic Wasp Nasonia vitripennis [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2007
The insect order of Hymenoptera (ants, bees, sawflies, and wasps) consists almost entirely of haplodiploid species. Under haplodiploidy, males develop from unfertilized eggs and are haploid, whereas females develop from fertilized eggs and are diploid. Although diploid males commonly occur, haploid females have never been reported.

Characterizing the infection-induced transcriptome of Nasonia vitripennis reveals a preponderance of taxonomically-restricted immune genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The innate immune system in insects consists of a conserved core signaling network and rapidly diversifying effector and recognition components, often containing a high proportion of taxonomically-restricted genes. In the absence of functional annotation,

Inheritance of Gynandromorphism in the Parasitic Wasp Nasonia vitripennis [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2007
Abstract The parasitic wasp Nasonia vitripennis has haplo-diploid sex determination. Males develop from unfertilized eggs and are haploid, whereas females develop from fertilized eggs and are diploid. Females and males can be easily distinguished by their morphology.
