The paper analyzes mutation spectra across 108 eukaryotic species, revealing cytosine transition mutability at CpG and CHG sites as key drivers of variation, with methylation levels not predicting mutation rates.

The paper characterizes nuclear mitochondrial insertions (Numts) in canine genome assemblies, identifying their distribution, evolutionary history, and population variation.

The paper develops a gene-level test for directional selection on gene expression using regulatory variants and identifies 45 genes with significant evidence of selection.
