The paper presents a high-quality, chromosome-scale genome assembly of the winged bean, identifying lipid biosynthesis hotspots and gene family dynamics.

This study assembles, annotates, and compares the mitochondrial genome of winged bean, revealing evolutionary adaptations and codon usage patterns.

The paper analyzes whole genome sequences of Zymoseptoria tritici isolates to study clonal and sexual reproduction in a wheat field, finding stable gene pools and unexpected clonality levels.

The paper tracks transposable element (TE) expansion in Zymoseptoria tritici populations, showing that demographic factors and relaxed selection drive genome size increases.

The paper identifies a virulence locus in Zymoseptoria tritici with rapid sequence evolution driven by transposable elements and genomic defenses.
