This paper provides strong evidence for the Meselson Effect in the parthenogenetic booklouse using diploid genomes, showing intra-individual SNP divergence exceeding inter-population levels.

The paper examines how temperature and salinity interact with genetic background to shape growth and flocculation in yeast, revealing context-dependent trait relationships and clonal variability.

Pedigree Painter (PePa) visualizes and quantifies genomic inheritance patterns from VCF files, revealing non-uniform recombination and parental contributions in fission yeast.

The paper identifies mitochondrial miRNAs (mt-miRNAs) that regulate nuclear gene expression, revealing a new mechanism by which mitochondria influence organismal function beyond energy production.

The paper reconstructs the evolutionary history of the g2 phospholipase A2 gene family across 93 vertebrate species to explore the origins of functional novelty.
