The molecular evolution of xenobiotic metabolism and resistance in chelicerate mites
T Van Leeuwen, W Dermauw - Annual review of entomology, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Chelicerate mites diverged from other arthropod lineages more than 400 million years ago
and subsequently developed specific and remarkable xenobiotic adaptations. The study of …

Taxonomic sampling and rare genomic changes overcome long-branch attraction in the phylogenetic placement of pseudoscorpions
Long-branch attraction is a systematic artifact that results in erroneous groupings of fast-
evolving taxa. The combination of short, deep internodes in tandem with long-branch …

Reciprocal responses in the interaction between Arabidopsis and the cell-content-feeding chelicerate herbivore spider mite
Most molecular-genetic studies of plant defense responses to arthropod herbivores have
focused on insects. However, plant-feeding mites are also pests of diverse plants, and mites …

Long-Term Population Studies Uncover the Genome Structure and Genetic Basis of Xenobiotic and Host Plant Adaptation in the Herbivore Tetranychus urticae
Pesticide resistance arises rapidly in arthropod herbivores, as can host plant adaptation,
and both are significant problems in agriculture. These traits have been challenging to study …
