Meet Luperina nickerlii, also known as the Sandhill Rustic moth. With many subspecies, a genome is useful. For #InsectWeek we are highlighting an array insects heading through our genome production pipeline. Read the WellcomeOpenResearch Genome Note here: wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/9-382

One of the many bumblebees sequenced by our project is the Large Red Tailed Bumble Bee. It is expanding its territory due to climate change, so may become a more common sight in your area. For #InsectWeek, read up on 🐝 DNA via the link below⤵️ wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/10-67

(2/2) 🔬 Looking for a recent success story? The June 2024 Nature article on decoding dogrose reproduction—powered by Darwin Tree of Life and Wellcome Sanger Institute genomes—is a stellar example of an EBP-affiliated project driving breakthroughs in plant evolution and breeding.

(2/2) 🌍 EBP genomes are often the first—and only—reference genomes available for a species. These foundational resources open doors to discovery, conservation, and innovation across the Tree of Life. 🌍🧬 For instance, the Darwin Tree of Life and Wellcome Sanger Institute sequenced this bat
