Asymmetric subspecies-selection of an NLR-TF immune module and reconstruction of broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice

The paper identifies an NLR-TF immune module in rice that confers disease resistance and shows how subspecies-specific selection affects its function and yield.

An Atlas of Linkage Disequilibrium Across Species

The paper introduces two LD estimation algorithms to create high-resolution LD grids across species, revealing evolutionary patterns and population structure.

DeepKin: precise estimation of in-depth relatedness and its application in UK Biobank

deepKin estimates relatedness with statistical inference and applies it to UK Biobank data, identifying significant relatives and geographic patterns.

Searching across-cohort relatives in 54,092 GWAS samples via encrypted genotype regression

This paper introduces encG-reg, an encrypted genotype regression method that identifies relatives across cohorts without sharing raw data, achieving accuracy comparable to traditional methods.
