This study identifies rapid chromosomal rearrangements and sex chromosome evolution in Pacific mackerels, linking them to reproductive isolation and speciation.

This study constructs a haplotype-phased genome assembly for Haliotis gigantea and identifies non-syntenic homologous chromosomes with structural variations that may contribute to functional diversification.

This study presents the first chromosome-scale genome assembly of a chimaera, identifies a sex chromosome in holocephalans, and reveals genomic features related to intron size and sex determination.

The paper identifies a shared supergene involved in sex chromosome turnover across three Takifugu species, showing repeated translocations of this supergene as the mechanism for sex determination locus changes.
