Happy to see our collaborative project on examining Bt resistance in lab and field populations of Helicoverpa zea is out in PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… @UAEnto @UArizonaCALES @UAZBIO5 #Genomics

I plan to recruit two Ph.D. students to join my lab in the Dept of Entomology at the University of Kentucky. The research focus will be on molecular mechanisms underlying physiological adaptation. Specifics below. Please DM/email me if you have any questions.

Our paper demonstrating female translation of male derived RNA is out. We identify 166 mdFTPs (male-derived female translated proteins) in cactophilic Drosophila & access their function via CRIPSR KOs. @UAEnto @UAZBIO5 @UArizonaCALES @UofAEEB #cactusfly cell.com/iscience/fullt…

Join our exciting lab in beautiful Tucson! Looking for a postdoc to work on an NIH funded project on the evolution of reproductive incompatibilities. Start date 6.1.24. See our preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. For more info: matzkinlab.org/2023/12/06/ava… #postdocposition

Our “Drosophila lava lamp” made its debut at the Insect Festival. Showing GFP expression in eyes and muscle in D. melanogaster. @UAEnto

Happy to share our new exciting finding of male-derived Female Translated Proteins (mdFTPs). Females translate the mRNA passed by males during copulation.

NIH R01 Grant Funded!!! We will be investigating the role and mechanism of male-derived female-translated proteins (mdFTPs) in fertility. Postdoc opportunity starting Fall 2024, contact me if interested. matzkinlab.org/2023/08/21/nih…


Cactusflybase, always refreshing on the trail.

The cactusflybase JBrowse has been improved. Gene pages, easy sequence downloads, and links to orthologues now available. cactusflybase.arizona.edu


Check out the new buzzatii cluster genomes available @cactusflybase cactusflybase.arizona.edu


Hey fly community come check out new chromosome-level genome assemblies for the exciting and ecologically interesting cactophilic Drosophila #cactusfly #Drosophila #genomics cactusflybase.arizona.edu


More cactophilic Drosophila genomes coming soon from the South American buzzatii group. #cactusfly #Drosophila #genomics


Our currently in review manuscript describing our seven chromosome level genomes of cactophilic Drosophila available in Biorxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #cactusfly #Drosophila #genomics


Cactusflybase offers a genomic repository of cactophilic Drosophila. Currently our mojavensis cluster (D. mojavensis, D. arizonae and D. navojoa) genomes are hosted #cactusfly #Drosophila
