Post-Domestication selection of MKK3 Shaped Seed Dormancy and End-Use Traits in Barley

The paper identifies MKK3 haplotypes in barley that influence seed dormancy and end-use traits through post-domestication selection, linking them to climate adaptation.

k-mer-based GWAS in a wheat collection reveals novel and diverse sources of powdery mildew resistance

The paper uses k-mer-based GWAS on a wheat collection to identify novel powdery mildew resistance loci, finding 27 new loci and a region for adult plant resistance.

Adaptive diversification through structural variation in barley

This study presents a barley pangenome revealing structural variation linked to traits like disease resistance and plant architecture, highlighting its role in adaptive evolution.

Towards an unbiased characterization of genetic polymorphism

The paper analyzes whole-genome polymorphism data from 27 Arabidopsis thaliana genomes to highlight challenges and insights in unbiased genetic variation characterization.

Genetic basis of Arabidopsis thaliana responses to infection by naive and adapted isolates of turnip mosaic virus

The paper identifies a genetic region associated with systemic necrosis in Arabidopsis thaliana infected with turnip mosaic virus, showing a trade-off between resistance and fitness costs.

Extensive gene duplication in Arabidopsis revealed by pseudo-heterozygosity

The paper identifies 2500 putatively duplicated genes in Arabidopsis thaliana by analyzing SNP calls from short-read sequencing and validates them using de novo genome assemblies.
