Peroxisomes are membrane-bounded organelles responsible for cellular redox and lipid metabolism in eukaryotic cells. Peroxisomes coordinate with other organelles including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, and lipid droplets. This functional coordination requires, or is at least enhanced by, direct contact between peroxisomes and other organelles. Peroxisome dysfunction in humans leads to multiorgan effects including neurological, metabolic, developmental, and age-related diseases. Thus, increased understanding of peroxisome coordination with other organelles, especially cells in various organs is essential. <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> (fruit fly) has emerged recently as an effective animal model for understanding peroxisomes.

Each species typically has a consistent number of chromosomes within its lineage. Ants, however, display remarkable diversity in chromosome numbers, and previous studies have shown that this variation may correlate with ant diversity. As ants evolved, various karyotypes emerged, primarily through chromosomal fissions, leading to an increase in chromosome number and a decrease in chromosome size. In this study, we investigate chromosome evolution in ants from a phylogenetic perspective using ancestral reconstruction. Our analysis indicates that the most recent common ancestor of ants had an ancestral haploid chromosome number of 11, likely composed of biarmed chromosomes. The bimodal distribution of karyotypes and the trend toward increased chromosome numbers align with previous assumptions. However, both dysploidy and ploidy changes have been indicated as likely mechanisms of chromosome number evolution. Descending dysploidy occurs consistently throughout the phylogeny, while changes in ploidy are believed to occur occasionally within the subfamilies during genus diversification. We propose, based on our results and previous evidence (e.g., genome size in ants), that both fusions and fissions contribute equally to karyotype changes in Formicidae.
