- Sex-specific molecular specialization and activity rhythm-dependent gene expression in honey bee antennae
Summary: Gene expression differences between honey bee male (specialist) and female (generalist) antennae identify differences in molecular specialization and reveal new genes involved in odorant detection.
- Selection for reproduction under short photoperiods changes diapause-associated traits and induces widespread genomic divergence
Highlighted Article: Quasinatural selection for reproduction under short photoperiods affects traits associated with reproductive diapause without altering the circadian rhythm, and induces divergence of SNPs associated with genes and pathways involved in diapause.
