TL;DR: The phylogenetic position of myriapods allows us to identify where in arthropod phylogeny several particular molecular mechanisms and traits emerged, and concludes that juvenile hormone signalling evolved with the emergence of the exoskeleton in the arthropods and that RR-1 containing cuticle proteins evolved in the lineage leading to Mandibulata.
Evolution of the Insect Yellow Gene Family
TL;DR: It is shown that yellow-like sequences are present in bacteria, insects, and fungi but absent from other eukaryotes apart from isolated putative sequences in Amphioxus, the Salmon Louse, and Naegleria, and that a highly conserved block of three to five genes has been maintained throughout insect diversification despite extensive genome rearrangements.
Evolution of the pair rule gene network: Insights from a centipede.

TL;DR: It is confirmed that the relative expression of sloppy-paired and paired with respect to wingless and engrailed at the parasegment boundary is conserved between myriapods and insects; suggesting that functional interactions between these genes might be an ancient feature of arthropod segment patterning.

XX/XY System of Sex Determination in the Geophilomorph Centipede Strigamia maritima.
TL;DR: It is shown that the geophilomorph centipede Strigamia maritima possesses an XX/XY system of sex chromosomes, with males being the heterogametic sex, and the X and Y chromosomes are recognizably different in size during the early pachytene stage of meiosis, and exhibit incomplete and delayed pairing.
Germ cells of the centipede Strigamia maritima are specified early in embryonic development

TL;DR: This study provides valuable comparative data that complements the growing number of studies in insects, crustaceans and chelicerates, and is important for the correct reconstruction of ancestral states and a fuller understanding of how germ cell development has evolved in different arthropod lineages.
