Live-bearing cockroach genome reveals convergent evolutionary mechanisms linked to viviparity in insects and beyond
Summary: Live birth (viviparity) has arisen repeatedly and independently among animals. We sequenced the genome and transcriptome of the viviparous Pacific beetle-mimic cockroach and performed comparative analyses with two other viviparous insect lineages, tsetse flies and aphids, to unravel the bas...
