Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 270-283, June 2026.The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

Human infectivity trait in Trypanosoma brucei: stability, heritability and relationship to sra expression [PDF]
, 2004 Some Trypanosoma brucei lines infect humans whereas others do not because the parasites are lysed by human serum. We have developed a robust, quantitative in vitro assay based on differential uptake of fluorescent dyes by live and dead trypanosomes to ...

Long‐Term Evolution Under Heatwave Conditions in the Seed Beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Here, using the seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus, we investigated the long‐term effects of evolution after 43 generations of fluctuating temperature with added heatwave exposure on two important life history traits, development time and lifetime reproductive success (LRS).
