NPJ Biodivers . 2024 Sep; 3(1):28. PMID: 39289538
A genomic database of all Earth's eukaryotic species could contribute to many scientific discoveries; however, only a tiny fraction of species have genomic information available. In 2018, scientists across the...

Fuselli S, Greco S, Biello R, Palmitessa S, Lago M, Meneghetti C, et al.
Mol Biol Evol . 2023 Sep; 40(9). PMID: 37671664
Nonadaptive hypotheses on the evolution of eukaryotic genome size predict an expansion when the process of purifying selection becomes weak. Accordingly, species with huge genomes, such as lungfish, are expected...

Pirri F, Ometto L, Fuselli S, Fernandes F, Ancona L, Perta N, et al.
Heredity (Edinb) . 2022 Oct; 129(6):317-326. PMID: 36207436
The eco-evolutionary history of penguins is characterised by shifting from temperate to cold environments. Breeding in Antarctica, the Emperor penguin appears as an extreme outcome of this process, with unique...

Valerio F, Zadra N, Rota-Stabelli O, Ometto L
Insects . 2022 Jul; 13(7). PMID: 35886779
Several true fruit flies (Tephritidae) cause major damage to agriculture worldwide. Among them, species of the genus are extensively studied to understand the traits associated with their invasiveness and ecology....

Savini G, Scolari F, Ometto L, Rota-Stabelli O, Carraretto D, Gomulski L, et al.
BMC Biol . 2021 Sep; 19(1):211. PMID: 34556101
Background: Glossina species (tsetse flies), the sole vectors of African trypanosomes, maintained along their long evolutionary history a unique reproductive strategy, adenotrophic viviparity. Viviparity reduces their reproductive rate and, as...

Kapun M, Nunez J, Bogaerts-Marquez M, Murga-Moreno J, Paris M, Outten J, et al.
Mol Biol Evol . 2021 Sep; 38(12):5782-5805. PMID: 34469576
Drosophila melanogaster is a leading model in population genetics and genomics, and a growing number of whole-genome data sets from natural populations of this species have been published over the...

Virus Evol . 2021 Aug; 7(1):veab031. PMID: 34408913
is an important model for antiviral immunity in arthropods, but very few DNA viruses have been described from the family Drosophilidae. This deficiency limits our opportunity to use natural host-pathogen...

Feuda R, Goulty M, Zadra N, Gasparetti T, Rosato E, Pisani D, et al.
Genome Biol Evol . 2021 Jul; 13(8). PMID: 34270718
Diptera is one of the biggest insect orders and displays a large diversity of visual adaptations. Similarly to other animals, the dipteran visual process is mediated by opsin genes. Although...
