Journal ArticleDOI

Insights into social insects from the genome of the honeybee Apis mellifera

George M. Weinstock, +228 more
- 26 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: The genome sequence of the honeybee Apis mellifera is reported, suggesting a novel African origin for the species A. melliferA and insights into whether Africanized bees spread throughout the New World via hybridization or displacement.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Drosophila melanogaster Genetic Reference Panel

TL;DR: The Drosophila melanogaster Genetic Reference Panel is described, a community resource for analysis of population genomics and quantitative traits, which reveals reduced polymorphism in centromeric autosomal regions and the X chromosomes, evidence for positive and negative selection, and rapid evolution of the X chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of the model beetle and pest Tribolium castaneum.

Stephen Richards, +190 more
- 24 Apr 2008 - 
TL;DR: Tribolium castaneum is a member of the most species-rich eukaryotic order, a powerful model organism for the study of generalized insect development, and an important pest of stored agricultural products.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus.

Erica Sodergren, +246 more
- 10 Nov 2006 - 
TL;DR: The sequence and analysis of the 814-megabase genome of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus is reported, a model for developmental and systems biology and yields insights into the evolution of deuterostomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

OrthoMCL-DB: querying a comprehensive multi-species collection of ortholog groups

TL;DR: The OrthoMCL-DB provides a centralized warehouse for orthology prediction among multiple species, and will be updated and expanded as additional genome sequence data become available.
