This study identifies genomic adaptations in an endangered California plant to coastal fog, revealing candidate genes and potential impacts of wind farms on gene flow.

The paper presents methylation profiles for two maple species using long-read sequencing to quantify methylation across all 5mC contexts, revealing patterns in transposable elements and gene regulation.

The paper presents a high-quality reference genome for the endangered Gaviota tarplant, identifies repeat sequences and tandem genes, and compares its genome to sunflower to infer a shared polyploidization event.

This study evaluates methods for improving genome annotation in non-model plants by testing workflows and inputs across five plant genomes.

The paper reports the first chromosome-scale genomes of two North American maple species and analyzes their abiotic stress responses to understand tolerance mechanisms.
