Haplotype-resolved genome assemblies and population resequencing reveal no evidence for genetic sex determination in the dioecious conifer Taxus baccata

The paper investigates sex determination in Taxus baccata and finds no evidence for a genetic sex-determining region, suggesting a non-genetic mechanism.

Provenance Legacies Override Species Effects in Shaping Oak Rhizosphere Microbiomes and Metabolomes

This study shows that seed origin legacy effects, rather than species identity, shape the microbiome and metabolome of oak trees under drought conditions.

Development of molecular markers for determining continental origin of wood from white oaks (Quercus L. sect. Quercus)

The paper identifies molecular markers using chloroplast genome variants to determine the continental origin of white oak species, enabling legal compliance in timber trade.

Genome Sequences of Populus tremula Chloroplast and Mitochondrion: Implications for Holistic Poplar Breeding

The paper provides complete chloroplast and mitochondrial genome sequences for two Populus clones, identifying SNPs and InDels that could aid in poplar molecular breeding.
