The automated eukaryotic pangenome pipeline EukPan reveals accessory genome differentiation beyond core-gene phylogeny in Aspergillus oryzae

EukPan is a pipeline for eukaryotic pangenome analysis that identifies core and shared accessory orthogroups, revealing differentiation in Aspergillus oryzae beyond core-gene phylogeny.

Conserved accessory genes link a phylogenetically distinct Bacillus subtilis strain from Indian bekang to the Japanese natto clade

The paper identifies a single Indian bekang strain with a conserved accessory gene profile similar to the Japanese natto clade, suggesting a shared adaptive strategy despite phylogenetic divergence.
