Genomic divergence shaped the genetic regulation of meiotic homologous recombination in Brassica allopolyploids

The study identifies the C09 chromosome's role in increasing meiotic crossovers in Brassica allopolyploids and shows epistatic interactions between C chromosomes.

An unexplored diversity for adaptation of germination to high temperatures in Brassica species

The paper assesses heat tolerance in Brassica species by evaluating germination responses across diverse populations from multiple countries.

Playing with the ploidy level enables to switch on and off the strict recombination control even in the vicinity of Brassica centromeres

The paper shows that altering ploidy levels in Brassica hybrids can change crossover frequency and distribution, enabling control over recombination in centromere regions.

Long-reads assembly of the Brassica napus reference genome, Darmor-bzh

The paper presents a new long-read assembly of the Brassica napus Darmor-bzh genome using nanopore sequencing, optical and genetic maps, resulting in a highly contiguous and complete reference genome.

Large genomic variants reveal unexplored intraspecific diversity in Brassica rapa genomes

The paper investigates structural genomic variants and repetitive content in Brassica rapa genomes using long-read sequencing and optical mapping, revealing significant intraspecific diversity in genome size and structure.
