Rapid and reproducible haplotyping of complete mitochondrial genomes using split k-mers

The paper introduces a method for accurate mitochondrial haplotyping using split k-mers and applies it to mitogenome datasets of mammalian and insect species.

The "Grove-First" Framework: Starting in the Grove to Find Therapies for Huanglongbing

The paper introduces the Grove-First framework to rapidly screen HLB therapies in citrus groves, identifying candidates with effects comparable to or better than oxytetracycline.

Viral and bacterial plant pathogens suppress antiviral defense against flaviviruses in their insect vectors

The paper identifies a new insect-specific flavivirus in aphids and shows that plant pathogens like PLRV and CLas suppress insect antiviral immunity against related viruses.
