This study presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly of Edelweiss, revealing its recent allotetraploid origin and localized subgenome dominance.

The paper benchmarks single-cell methods for meiotic recombination mapping in Arabidopsis thaliana and introduces tools to detect crossovers and haplotypes from sparse sequencing data.

The paper investigates hybridization between Arabis nemorensis and A. sagittata, identifying QTLs associated with phenotypic traits and hybrid fitness, revealing both challenges and opportunities for adaptation.

This study defines the mutation spectrum in Arabidopsis thaliana centromeres, showing higher point mutation rates and homology-directed repair-driven indels.

This paper develops a method to map eQTLs using snRNA-seq of gametes from a small number of heterozygous individuals, uncovering cis- and trans-eQTLs in Arabidopsis pollen nuclei.
