The paper identifies gene-specific evolutionary-rate associations with quantitative mammalian brain phenotypes using integrated phenotypic and genomic data.

The paper investigates post-admixture selection for the Duffy-negative allele FY*BES in the Khwe foragers of the Lower Okavango Basin, suggesting P. vivax presence in the region at least 500-1,000 years ago.

This study evaluates machine learning's ability to predict ancient DNA age from damage profiles, finding no significant predictive power beyond baselines.

Trans2express is a de novo transcriptome assembly pipeline that produces high-quality assemblies suitable for gene expression analysis in non-model plants.

This study uses single-cell transcriptomics to show zebrafish pigment cells develop directly from broadly multipotent progenitors, challenging traditional fate restriction models.

The paper annotates the Hirudo medicinalis genome and analyzes salivary transcriptomes of three leech species to identify salivary cell-specific genes and update knowledge on blood-sucking mechanisms.

The paper analyzes coat color alleles and mtDNA haplotypes in Russian cats to study population genetics and phylogeography, finding genetic homogeneity and unique mitotypes.
