The paper presents a near-complete, haplotype-resolved genome assembly of common buckwheat using trio-binning and Hi-C data, providing a valuable resource for genomic research and breeding.

The paper identifies convergent evolution of a plant supergene through multiple genomic architectures, showing the same gene is duplicated and co-opted independently in different species.

The paper studies Y chromosome evolution in Mercurialis annua, identifying two recombination suppression stages and a candidate master sex-determination gene.

This study examines the fate of a supergene in polyploid species by analyzing the genome of Primula grandis, finding degeneration of a key gene while other genes remain unaffected.

The paper compares 3D chromatin organization across species to propose a layer cake model that refines the two compartments model by identifying distinct chromatin layers.

This paper shows that H1 prevents H3K27me3 accumulation at telomeres and ITRs in Arabidopsis by restricting DNA accessibility to TRB proteins, while promoting PRC2 activity at genes.

This study shows that H1 linker histones in Arabidopsis regulate fine-scale chromatin organization and developmental decisions, affecting processes like root hair production and flowering.

The paper shows that transgene silencing in Arabidopsis is linked to the KNOT, a 3D chromatin structure, and describes a novel silencing mechanism called KNOT-Linked Silencing (KLS).
