Single-cell whole-genome sequencing reveals convergent evolution in Burkitt lymphoma

This study uses single-cell whole-genome sequencing to show that Burkitt lymphoma develops through convergent evolution, with early genetic diversity and accelerated mutation accumulation.

Quantitative modelling of fate specification in the C. elegans postembryonicM lineage reveals a missing spatiotemporal signal

The paper uses quantitative modeling to investigate fate specification in the C. elegans postembryonic M lineage and identifies potential missing spatiotemporal signals.

REC8-cohesin, chromatin and transcription orchestrate meiotic recombination in the Arabidopsis genome

The paper investigates how REC8-cohesin interacts with chromatin and transcription to regulate meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis.

Interhomolog polymorphism shapes meiotic crossover within RAC1 and RPP13 disease resistance genes

The paper maps meiotic crossovers in Arabidopsis thaliana disease resistance genes, finding that interhomolog divergence suppresses crossover frequency and that local context influences recombination outcomes in mutants.
