GUIDANCE: a web server for assessing alignment confidence scores
Evaluating the accuracy of multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is critical for virtually every
comparative sequence analysis that uses an MSA as input. Here we present the GUIDANCE …

An alignment confidence score capturing robustness to guide tree uncertainty
Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is the basis for a wide range of comparative sequence
analyses from molecular phylogenetics to 3D structure prediction. Sophisticated algorithms …

Social insect genomes exhibit dramatic evolution in gene composition and regulation while preserving regulatory features linked to sociality
Genomes of eusocial insects code for dramatic examples of phenotypic plasticity and social
organization. We compared the genomes of seven ants, the honeybee, and various solitary …

Patterns of positive selection in seven ant genomes
The evolution of ants is marked by remarkable adaptations that allowed the development of
very complex social systems. To identify how ant-specific adaptations are associated with …

Oral transfer of chemical cues, growth proteins and hormones in social insects
10.7554/eLife.20375.001 Social insects frequently engage in oral fluid exchange –
trophallaxis – between adults, and between adults and larvae. Although trophallaxis is widely …

Improving the performance of positive selection inference by filtering unreliable alignment regions
Errors in the inferred multiple sequence alignment may lead to false prediction of positive
selection. Recently, methods for detecting unreliable alignment regions were developed and …
