This study presents two high-quality rose genomes and constructs a Rosa pangenome to explore genetic diversity, evolution, and breeding potential in the genus Rosa.

The paper develops a complete chromosome substitution mapping panel in Arabidopsis thaliana to enable high power mapping of genome-wide epistasis.

The paper maps genotype-by-ploidy effects in Arabidopsis thaliana by analyzing haploid and diploid offspring from a late flowering cross, identifying ploidy-specific QTLs and pleiotropic effects.

The paper examines metabolic diversity in Arabidopsis thaliana using metabolomics and GWA mapping, finding that local adaptation and selection shape secondary metabolite profiles through haplotype variation.

This study uses cybrids to show that plasmotype variation affects plant phenotypes through additive and epistatic interactions, with epistasis explaining more variance than additivity.
