Journal Article
Bellows, E., Heatley, M., Shah, N., Archer, N., Giles, T., & Fray, R. (2024). Comparative transcriptome reprogramming in oak galls containing asexual or sexual generations of gall wasps. Plant Biology, 26(5), 798-810. https://doi.org/10.1111/plb.13670

Oak gall wasps have evolved strategies to manipulate the developmental pathways of their host to induce gall formation. This provides shelter and nutrients for the developing larva. Galls are entirely host tissue; however, the initiation, development... Read More about Comparative transcriptome reprogramming in oak galls containing asexual or sexual generations of gall wasps.
