Imprinting and DNA methylation in water lily endosperm: implications for seed evolution

R. A. Povilus, C. A. Martin, L. L. Bechen, M. Gehring

This study examines DNA methylation and genetic imprinting in water lily endosperm, finding maternally-expressed imprinted genes and differential DNA methylation are ancestral traits.

Water lily (Nymphaea thermarum) draft genome reveals variable genomic signatures of ancient vascular cambium losses

R. A. Povilus, J. M. DaCosta, C. Grassa, P. R. V. Satyaki, M. Moeglein, J. Jaenisch, Z. Xi, S. Mathews, M. Gehring, C. C. Davis, W. E. Friedman

The paper sequences the water lily Nymphaea thermarum genome and compares it to other plants to identify gene loss and divergence patterns associated with vascular cambium loss.
