Insect Pan-Genome Services

The pan-genome refers to the complete set of genes possessed by all individuals within a species or taxonomic group, encompassing both core genes and variable genes. In insect research, the construction of a pan-genome facilitates the understanding of genetic diversity, adaptive evolution, and the genetic basis of artificial selection within a species. Lifeasible is committed to providing advanced technical support and comprehensive solutions for insect research. Our insect pan-genome services enable comprehensive analysis of insect genomes, helping researchers further uncover genetic diversity within species, understand insect genetic characteristics, and delve deeper into insect-related research.

What Can We Offer?

Our insect pan-genome services include a range of technologies and solutions for constructing and analyzing insect pan-genomes, helping researchers gain a deeper understanding of the genetic diversity, evolutionary mechanisms, and environmental adaptability of insect species.

Application Areas

• Artificial selection and breeding improvement. For example, in silkworm research, high-resolution pan-genomes were constructed through long-read sequencing of hundreds of silkworm individuals, revealing key genes associated with economic traits such as silk yield and fineness.
• Ecological adaptation and invasion mechanisms. Pan-genome analysis has revealed genetic variation in invasive insects (such as Halyomorpha halys) related to pesticide resistance and sensory perception, aiding in understanding the reasons for their successful spread.
• Convergent evolution studies. In the genus Nymphalidae butterflies, pan-genome analysis combined with multiple sequencing techniques has revealed the genetic regulatory mechanisms underlying the convergent evolution of wing color patterns among different species, identifying key regulatory elements (CREs).
