This study shows that small island populations of anoa and babirusa have higher genetic quality despite lower diversity, suggesting they should be prioritized for conservation over mainland translocations.

FALCON-Phase uses long-read sequencing and Hi-C data to create phased diploid genome assemblies, achieving high accuracy in non-human species but lower accuracy in humans.

The paper presents haplotype-resolved cattle genomes to identify structural variants and adaptation traits, finding expanded immune-related gene families and a fatty acid desaturase copy under positive selection in indicine cattle.

This paper introduces trio binning, a method for assembling haplotypes from heterozygous genomes using parental short reads, achieving high accuracy in diploid reconstruction.
