Project description:We used 10x Genomics and Drop-seq single-cell RNA-seq to identify the cell type composition of the Harpegnathos brain and study how it changes during the process of adult caste transition (from worker to pseudo-queen), aging, and brain injury.
Project description:Harpegnathos workers were induced to transition to reproductive gamergates and 120 days later mRNA from their brains was sequenced to determine changes in gene expressioin
Project description:Harpegnathos workers were induced to transition to reproductive gamergates and mRNA from their brains was sequenced to determine changes in gene expression at different time points (0, 6, 13, and 110 days after transition onset)
Project description:Deep sequencing of small RNA from two Ants: Camponotus floridanus and Harpegnathos saltator Analysis of small RNA expression profile from different specimens: egg,larva,male,minor and major for Camponotus floridanus while egg,larva,male,worker and gammergate for Harpegnathos saltator
