Item type:Publication, WITHDRAWN: Genome Report: Long read, high-coverage reference genomes of the Nymphalid butterflies <i>Catonephele acontius</i> and <i>Catonephele numilia</i> (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae)(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2026-01-22)Withdrawal Statement The authors have withdrawn this manuscript because in February 2026, the authors found that the Catonephele numilia specimen was misidentified and was in fact also Catonephele acontius . Thus, the data in the article describing the Catonephele numilia genome is invalid, as it in fact describes a second Catonephele acontius genome. This data invalidation has resulted in a loss of confidence in the results and conclusions reported in the article as far as they apply to Catonephele numilia . The data describing Catonephele acontius is not affected and remains valid. The authors are, therefore, retracting this article. All authors agree with the retraction. Therefore, the authors do not wish this work to be cited as reference for the project.

Item type:Publication, A high-quality draft genome assembly of the Neotropical butterfly, Batesia hypochlora (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae)(BioMed Central Ltd, 2026-12-01)We report a long-read high-coverage reference genome assembly of the Neotropical butterfly, Batesia hypochlora (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae). This represents the first reference genome in the Biblidinae subfamily, a clade subject to ongoing studies on seasona1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Genomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in Peru from 2020 to 2024(Springer Nature, 2026)Background: Peru recorded one of the world’s highest COVID-19 mortality rates, with nearly 4.5 million reported cases and 220,000 deaths by March 2024. Understanding the emergence and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants in this context is key to informing effective public health responses. This study describes the genomic diversity, transmission dynamics, and geographic spread of SARS-CoV-2 in Peru from 2020 to 2024. Methods: We analyzed nearly 50,000 high-quality public SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences collected nationwide between March 2020 and March 2024. Phylogeographic and mutational analyses were performed to identify variant lineages, trace their origins, and map viral movements within and beyond Peru. Results: We show that Peru’s epidemic waves were shaped by the emergence of locally evolved variants, including Lambda (C.37), Gamma (P.1.12), and Omicron (XBB.2.6 and DJ.1) sub-lineages. The city of Lima acted as the primary hub for inter-regional spread, accounting for 47.3% of inferred viral movements to other departments, notably Ancash, Cusco, and Piura. Peru was the source of various lineages that spread internationally, primarily to Chile, the USA, and Europe. Mutational analysis highlighted critical mutations in the spike protein, including L452Q and F490S in Lambda, associated with immune evasion and increased transmissibility. Conclusions: This work demonstrates the capacity of genomic surveillance in Peru to detect and track emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants, providing insights into regional and global transmission dynamics in a high-transmission, middle-income country setting. Sustained, cost-effective genomic monitoring, combined with strengthened bioinformatics and laboratory capacity, is essential for pandemic preparedness in resource-limited settings.
