A comparison of somatic and germline small RNA pathways across the arthropods

The European Honeybee, a key pollinator, has been reported to have suffered significant colony losses at least since 2006, when the first cases of Colony Collapse Disorder were...

Cytosine DNA methylation is a heritable epigenetic mark present in many eukaryotic organisms. While DNA methylation likely has a conserved role in gene silencing, the levels and...

The brain requires complex mechanisms of genome regulation to encode and store behavioural information. In mammals, DNA methylation deposited at non-CG dinucleotides...

Study somatic mutation in animal tissues, including mutation burden accumulation through lifespan and mutational signatures.

Raw reads from samples of danish species, sequenced with the purpose of assembling mito genomes for future references.

Eukaryotic cytosine methylation represses transposable elements, but also occurs in bodies of active genes. The extent to which these processes are conserved is unclear, and...

DNA methylation has been found throughout animal kingdom, but it is still unclear whether this epigenetic mechanism affects the evolution of genomic elements in animals. Here,...

Many insects utilise optical information in linearly polarised light for navigation, with the degree of linear polarisation (DoLP) determining whether the ‘visibility’ of such...
