The paper investigates the evolutionary history of Microhyla frog species complexes in the Indochinese Peninsula using phylogeographic and genomic analyses, revealing shared patterns of diversification and recurrent hybridization.

Puzzle Hi-C improves chromosome-scale genome assembly by reducing scaffolding interference through a triangle region strategy and dynamic window expansion.

The paper analyzes genomes of leatherback and green turtles to identify gene family expansions and demographic differences that may influence their ecological adaptations and conservation status.

The paper benchmarks DNA preservation methods for long-read and long-range sequencing across vertebrates, finding that optimal methods vary by taxa, tissue, and application.

The paper introduces a modified library length approach for mitochondrial DNA capture, showing improved sequencing depth and completeness across diverse amphibian species.
