| 研究実績の概要 |
We obtained all the data planned for this project and started analyzing them. Dr. Hellemans created a pipeline to obtain about 400 genes from the Wolbachia genomes found in our shotgun sequencing data. These genes will be used to build a phylogenetic tree of Wolbachia. He also created several additional pipelines to obtain termite’s ultra-conserved elements, mitochondrial genomes, and rDNA genes. Finally, he is currently writing two papers that resulted from side projects: one on the evolution of termite diet, and one on the evolution of mutualistic Wolbachia found in the termite Cavitermes tuberosus.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Dr. Hellemans will continue the analyses of Wolbachia genomes. I expect the bioinformatics analyses to be done this year, and I expect the papers to be submitted for publication in 2022.
