This study identifies Zcf27 and Zcf4 as distinct regulators of ergosterol gene expression in C. glabrata, showing their roles in azole resistance and hypoxic adaptation.

This paper reports a draft genome of Elysia crispata morphotype clarki, a sea slug that retains chloroplasts for months, and identifies genes potentially involved in kleptoplast retention.

The paper shows that secondary metabolism gene clusters in Xylariales fungi are linked to broader ecological roles and increased gene diversity.
