Here, we characterize genome-wide methylation at a base-pair resolution, and compare these results to gene expression across five developmental stages and to methylation patterns reported in other insects. An accurate assessment of DNA methylation across the genome is accomplished using bisulfite ...
The genome of all organisms is spatially organized to function efficiently. The advent of genome-wide chromatin conformation capture (Hi-C) methods has revolutionized our ability to probe the three-dimensional (3D) organization of genomes across diverse species. In this Review, we compare 3D chromat...
Fig. 2:B. malayiChr X mapping acrossO. volvulusChr 1 (NX) and Chr X (ND). An analysis of theB. malayiX chromosome indicates that it is the product of a fusion of two Nigon elements: ND and NX, in contrast with theO. volvulusX chromosome, which is composed of a fusion between ND...

Because it was difficult to compare ancestors and their descendants, living organisms were compared with one another, initially across broad divisions such as phyla and classes—homology of the tissue interactions that initiate the development of Meckel’s cartilage in the lower jaw of amphibians, bir...
Genome wide DNA methylation Gene regulatory responses to orthotospovirus-infection may be influenced by epigenetic modifications leading to changes in accessibility for transcription factors. In insects, the levels of DNA methylation are generally low and concentrated within gene bodies [82,83], where ...
extracellular interactions, making them ideal for studies on symbiosis-related evolution. It is still unclear whether there are universal patterns to symbiosis across bivalves. Here, we investigate the hologenome of an extracellular symbiotic thyasirid clam that represents the early stages of symbiosis ...
Although native to North America, the invasion of the aphid-like grape phylloxera Daktulosphaira vitifoliae across the globe altered the course of grape cultivation. For the past 150 years, viticulture relied on grafting-resistant North American Vitis
