The paper investigates anthocyanin pigmentation loss in Cucurbitaceae, finding systematic absence of biosynthesis genes and proposing a stepwise loss mechanism.

The paper introduces XpBrew, a Python workflow for RNA-seq processing, and PanXpresso, a gene expression dataset collection across multiple taxa.

The paper examines anthocyanin biosynthesis gene evolution in Poaceae, identifying independent lineage replacements and gene losses in Brachypodium.

Comparing nine Solanaceae genomes reveals a conserved withanolide gene cluster; three of its P450s, expressed in yeast and N. benthamiana, oxidise 24-methyldesmosterol toward the withanoside V aglycone.

The paper sequences two T. cacao genomes to identify structural variants linked to flavonoid biosynthesis variation.

KIPEs3 automatically annotates biosynthesis pathways, demonstrating its application to flavonoid and carotenoid pathways in multiple plant species.

The paper presents the first nuclear and mitochondrial genome sequences of Ranunculus, along with plastome evolution, using efficient assembly strategies for non-model plants.
