The paper identifies genomic and transcriptomic factors determining gene dispensability in maize by analyzing a pan-gene set and transcriptomic profiles across multiple tissues.

This paper introduces SAM-seq, a long-read sequencing method to simultaneously profile chromatin accessibility and DNA methylation in plants, revealing epigenetic crosstalk and cellular heterogeneity.

This study identifies alternative silencing states of transposable elements in Arabidopsis, showing H3K27me3 can silence TEs independently of DNA methylation and reveals epigenetic variation across species.

The paper integrates genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptomic data to model enhancer-driven gene regulatory networks in maize tissues, identifying tissue-specific transcription factor families and transposable element contributions.

The paper develops a high-throughput method to genotype InDels in maize using an Affymetrix Axiom array, achieving high reliability and reproducibility.

The paper shows that cold stress in maize increases genome-wide DNA methylation of transposable elements and centromeres, with context-specific responses depending on TE types and chromosomal location.
