The paper presents haplotype-resolved genomes of six ape species with high accuracy and provides comparative analyses to study evolutionary diversity and gene family evolution.

TOGA integrates gene annotation and orthology inference across hundreds of genomes, improving ortholog detection and creating large comparative gene resources.

A machine learning approach identifies enhancer-phenotype associations across mammals, revealing links to brain size and behavior evolution.

A 240-species placental mammal alignment resolves constraint to single bases, estimating at least 10.7% of the human genome is constrained, with 48.5% of constrained bases unannotated.

The paper provides highly accurate long-read HiFi sequencing datasets for five complex genomes to evaluate and develop bioinformatic tools.

The paper presents a high-quality long-read genome assembly for the Alala, a critically endangered Hawaiian crow, to support conservation efforts through genomic tools and comparative studies.
