This paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly for Helichrysum odoratissimum to support genetic and functional studies.

The paper benchmarks the DNBSEQ-T7 sequencing platform using Genome in a Bottle reference genomes, showing high quality and variant detection accuracy across different library preparation workflows.

The paper compares the neutrophil response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection between HIV+ individuals with and without TB history, finding distinct gene expression and NETosis patterns in those without TB.

This study performs a genome-wide association analysis of host genetic variants and MTBC strain infection in two cohorts, identifying 32 SNPs significantly associated with infection risk in the Ghanaian cohort.

The paper reports the first six human whole genome sequences generated and analyzed locally in South Africa, demonstrating high-quality data comparable to international standards.

This study conducts a sex-stratified genome-wide association study of tuberculosis, identifying sex-specific genetic interactions and candidate genes.
