Horizontal gene transfer - a typical source of a major innovation in evolution or a positive publication bias? In the latest preprint from Bourguignon lab, termite genomes provide a story less frequently told. https://t.co/H1570LArGf

Fresh preprint on how to optimize quality of voucher DNA remaining in insect specimens (including the not-so-fresh ones) after barcoding; from
@RudolfMeier15 lab and our lab. https://t.co/sRIAdVJGeM

Andrew Sweet from Arkansas State University is recruiting a PhD for an evolutionary biology project on a super-interesting phenomenon: fragmentation of mitochondrial genomes in parasitic lice. https://t.co/28ntFmZvsw

[Aleš Buček @AlesBucek]

Simon et al. updated termite family- and subfamily-level classification. Thanks to the genome-scale ultraconserved element data used here, this classification shall remain a stable backbone for termite evolution research for many future years. Congrats!

[Nature Communications @NatureComms]

Hellemans et al. produce an updated termite classification with genomic scale analyses, highlighting thirteen family-level lineages and resilience of their classification to future termite research.

Thanks @MarkChHarrison and others for organizing 1st International Conference for Blattodea Research. Many great talks and I was happy to talk about our research on convergent evolution in termite soldiers. Already looking forward to the 2nd ICBR :)

[Mark C Harrison @MarkChHarrison]

Excited about all the exciting roach and termite science we'll be discussing today and tomorrow.
