This study compares holocentromere organization in two Cyperaceae subfamilies, revealing differences in repeat structure and protein distribution associated with centromere function.

The paper compares centromere organization and (epi)genome features between two species with different centromere types, finding distinct histone phosphorylation patterns and kinetochore gene mutations.

The paper introduces antibodies against KNL1 and NDC80 as more versatile markers for detecting functional centromeres in plants compared to CENH3 antibodies.

The paper analyzes sequence gaps in the barley MorexV3 reference genome, identifying centromeric and repeat regions as major contributors to fragmentation and discussing strategies for gap closure.
