The paper constructs a chromosome-scale super-pangenome for the lichen genus Peltigera, revealing shared genomic features between pathogenic and mutualistic fungi.

The paper uses long-read sequencing to generate and compare Y chromosome assemblies across haplogroups and assesses epigenetic modifications in human populations.

The paper identifies molecular niches regulated by connective tissue-associated transcription factors through RNA-seq and ChIP-seq in chick limb cells.

The paper shows transcription factors drive genome topology changes before gene expression during cell reprogramming.
