Aug 4, 2021 · We assembled the first harvestman draft genome for the species Phalangium opilio, which bears elongate, prehensile appendages, made possible by numerous distal articles called tarsomeres. Here, we show that the genome of P. opilio exhibits a single Hox cluster and no evidence of WGD.
However, their preference varies based on the amount of cover available in a certain area. P. opilio tend to be found in shrubs and brushy vegetation when sparse shrub cover exists, but tend to be found on the ground layer when dense cover is present, such as low vegetation and grass.

Life Cycle. In Europe P. opilio has a single generation per year and overwinters as eggs. In parts of North America two or more generations may occur, and eggs, immatures, or adults may overwinter. Eggs are laid in moist areas under rocks, in cracks in the soil, or between the soil and the crowns or recumbent leaves of plants.

WGD events continue to be discovered throughout plant systematic diversity as a consequence of genome sequencing programs. The absolute timing of WGD events remains poorly constrained and poorly understood, but many hypotheses regarding the role of WGD in plant evolution depend on precise estimates.
Feb 22, 2024 · These WGD events may have provided a buffer for plants and facilitated their survival and adaptation to rapidly changing environments by increasing genomic plasticity and genotypic combinations.
