TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report chronic SARS-CoV-2 with reduced sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies in an immune suppressed individual treated with convalescent plasma, generating whole genome ultradeep sequences over 23 time points spanning 101 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic and genomic analyses of the division of labour in insect societies
TL;DR: Different forms of division of labour, in lineages in which eusociality has arisen independently, have evolved through changes in the regulation of highly conserved molecular pathways associated with several basic life-history traits, including nutrition, metabolism and reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Draft genome of the globally widespread and invasive Argentine ant (Linepithema humile).

TL;DR: The draft genome sequence of a particularly widespread and well-studied species, the invasive Argentine ant, is reported, which was accomplished using a combination of 454 and Illumina sequencing and community-based funding rather than federal grant support.
Journal ArticleDOI
Draft genome of the red harvester ant Pogonomyrmex barbatus

TL;DR: Gene networks involved in generating key differences between the queen and worker castes show signatures of increased methylation and suggest that ants and bees may have independently co-opted the same gene regulatory mechanisms for reproductive division of labor.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Following recent reports of genome sequences from other insects that engage in symbioses with beneficial microbes, the A. cephalotes genome provides new insights into the symbiotic lifestyle of this ant and advances the understanding of host–microbe symbioss.
