The paper quantifies methylation inheritance in clonally propagated grapevines using phased genomes and multi-omics data, showing remarkable stability of epigenetic marks despite clonal variability.

The paper identifies and characterizes haplotype-resolved resistance loci in Muscadinia rotundifolia, revealing structural variations affecting NLR genes involved in powdery mildew resistance.

HaploSync improves diploid genome assemblies by phasing, correcting scaffolding errors, and filling gaps in multiple species.

The paper assembles the diploid genome of Muscadinia rotundifolia, identifies chromosome fusions, and detects expanded disease resistance genes in comparison to Vitis species.

This study analyzes somatic mutations in clonally propagated grapevines, finding that repetitive intergenic regions drive genome diversification and that deleterious mutations accumulate in clones.

This study uses Iso-Seq to reconstruct the transcriptome of Cabernet Sauvignon grape berries, identifying cultivar-specific genes without relying on a reference genome.
