From genome wide SNPs to genomic islands of differentiation: the quest for species diagnostic markers in two scleractinian corals, Pocillopora and Porites

The paper develops a genotyping method called 'Divergent Fragment' to accurately assign coral samples to species within two genera, using sequencing of a diagnostic genomic fragment from metagenomic data.

Global observation of plankton communities from space

The paper uses satellite data and machine learning to predict global plankton community distributions with 67% accuracy, outperforming temperature and chlorophyll a alone.

Open science resources from the Tara Pacific expedition across coral reef and surface ocean ecosystems

The paper describes the Tara Pacific expedition's sampling methodology and provides access to datasets from coral reef and surface ocean ecosystems.

High genetic diversity in the pelagic deep-sea fauna of the Atacama Trench revealed by environmental DNA

This study uses environmental DNA to reveal high genetic diversity in the deep-sea fauna of the Atacama Trench, showing that deep waters contribute significantly to overall diversity.

Transcriptomic plasticity and symbiont shuffling underpin Pocillopora acclimatization across heat-stress regimes in the Pacific Ocean

This study investigates how Pocillopora corals acclimate to heat stress by analyzing host and symbiont gene expression across the Pacific Ocean.

Disentangling marine microbial networks across space

This study examines how microbial associations change across different ocean depths and regions, finding that most surface associations disappear with depth and that associations are highly variable across space.

A cross biomes bacterial diversity shed light on ocean-atmosphere microbial transmission.

This study examines microbial diversity in ocean and atmosphere samples across the Atlantic and Pacific, finding greater atmospheric variability and distinct bacterial composition between ocean and atmosphere.

Ocean-wide comparisons of mesopelagic planktonic community structures

This study compares mesopelagic planktonic community structures across different oxygen conditions and identifies environmental drivers and community modules.

Genomic evidence for global ocean plankton biogeography shaped by large-scale current systems

The paper analyzes plankton genomic distribution across oceans to show how large-scale currents shape biogeography, revealing size-dependent patterns and basin-scale transport effects.

Functional repertoire convergence of distantly related eukaryotic plankton lineages revealed by genome-resolved metagenomics

The paper uses Tara Oceans metagenomic data to reconstruct and analyze eukaryotic genomes, revealing functional convergence among distantly related plankton lineages.

The genome of the jellyfish Clytia hemisphaerica and the evolution of the cnidarian life-cycle

This study presents the genome of Clytia hemisphaerica and analyzes transcriptomes across its life-cycle stages, revealing gene expression patterns and evolutionary insights into cnidarian development.

Disentangling The Causes For Faster-X Evolution In Aphids

This study investigates faster-X evolution in aphids by analyzing gene expression, substitution rates, and polymorphism data to determine the role of selection and drift.
