The paper presents a genome catalog of the early-life human skin microbiome, expanding diversity and improving classification rates using metagenomic data from infants and their mothers.

The paper uses HiFi sequencing to identify hypermethylation outliers in a rare disease cohort, finding allele-specific loss of regulatory elements linked to disease.

The paper summarizes methods and lessons from assembling 16 vertebrate genomes, highlights the importance of long-read sequencing, and introduces the Vertebrate Genomes Project to generate complete reference genomes for all vertebrate species.

FALCON-Phase uses long-read sequencing and Hi-C data to create phased diploid genome assemblies, achieving high accuracy in non-human species but lower accuracy in humans.

The paper presents improved pig reference genomes using long-read sequencing, enhancing continuity and accuracy for pig genetics and genomics research.

This paper develops a long-read sequencing protocol to improve variant detection and genome assembly in a human genome, achieving high accuracy and contiguity.

The paper presents an improved Aedes aegypti genome assembly, AaegL5, which enhances biological understanding and vector control efforts by resolving key genomic features and identifying new targets for intervention.

The paper presents a high-quality long-read genome assembly for the Alala, a critically endangered Hawaiian crow, to support conservation efforts through genomic tools and comparative studies.

The paper presents the first near-complete assembly of the hexaploid bread wheat genome using a combination of short and long-read sequencing technologies.

The paper uses long-read sequencing to phase and sequence sixteen KIR haplotypes from eight individuals, revealing novel structures and variants.
