The paper analyzes the genetic composition and history of the bread wheat D genome using a pangenome of its donor species, revealing contributions from discrete subpopulations of Aegilops tauschii.

The paper identifies a CLAMT1 gene responsible for strigolactone production and Striga susceptibility in pearl millet by comparing genome assemblies of susceptible and resistant lines.

The paper presents a fully annotated reference genome from a Saudi individual using de novo assembly and AI-based annotation, making all data publicly available.

LeafGo provides a rapid, cost-effective workflow for generating high-quality de novo plant genomes using third-generation sequencing technologies within seven days.

The paper identifies widespread transcription initiation at microsatellites across species and develops deep learning models to predict STR-associated transcription and its impact on disease variants.

The paper reports dual symbiosis in the deep-sea snail Gigantopelta aegis, revealing its genome and two endosymbionts with complementary metabolic functions and immune adaptations.

The paper presents a large-scale cancer pharmacogenomic screen with 11,576 experiments on 910 drug combinations across 85 cancer cell lines, enabling crowd-sourced prediction of synergistic drug pairs and biomarkers.
