Identification and structural characterization of pseudogenes in Fusarium graminearum.

This study identifies and characterizes pseudogenes in Fusarium graminearum, finding they are mostly in fast-evolving regions and some overlap with functional gene sequences.

Comparative analysis of the genomic architecture of six Fusarium species

This study compares genomic architectures across six Fusarium species, finding that genomic compartments with low collinearity are enriched for virulence-related genes and show signs of selective pressure.

Pod indehiscence in common bean is associated to the fine regulation of PvMYB26 and a non-functional abscission layer

The paper identifies PvMYB26 as a candidate gene for pod indehiscence in common bean, linking its fine regulation to the absence of a functional abscission layer.
