The paper benchmarks long-read RNA sequencing pipelines for de novo transcriptome assembly in non-model plants, finding organ-specific optimal strategies for flower and leaf tissues.

The paper analyzes SARS-CoV-2 genome compositional changes over time, finding an accelerating trend toward a more symmetric and homogeneous structure.

The paper analyzes SARS-CoV-2 genome sequence heterogeneity over time, finding that increased fitness of variants leads to reduced sequence complexity.

The paper compares the satellitomes of two grasshopper species to show that satellite DNA evolves through cycles of amplification and degeneration, leading to contingent evolutionary pathways.

The paper analyzes sequence compositional complexity in SARS-CoV-2 genomes over time, finding a decreasing trend in complexity after high fitness variants emerged.
