Genos-m: a foundation model for human-associated microbial genomes

Genos-m is a foundation model for human-associated microbial genomes that outperforms existing models in gene-fitness prediction and community structure analysis.

The enhanced multi-tissue atlas of regulatory effects in cattle

The paper presents CattleGTEx, a resource characterizing regulatory effects in cattle, resolving GWAS signals and providing insights into adaptive evolution and selection.

Age-dependent sexual dimorphism in the adult human gut microbiota

This study identifies age-related sex differences in gut microbiota composition and functionality across two population cohorts, showing women have more diverse and stable microbiota than men, with sex differences diminishing in older adults.

WinnerTakeAlmostAll: A parsimony approach integrating multi-targets improves marker gene profiling

The paper introduces an algorithm to improve marker gene profiling by integrating multiple regions for higher resolution and technical replicates.

Genome-wide analysis reveals signatures of selection for gait traits in Yili horse

The paper identifies genomic selection signatures for gait traits in Yili horses using SNP data, finding two candidate genes related to locomotory behavior.
