The paper presents 320 nearly-complete East Asian genome assemblies, revealing new genetic diversity and structural variations not present in existing global pangenomes.

The paper identifies new genes involved in the evolution of parasperm classes in Drosophila, showing their role in sperm divergence and altruistic traits.

The paper investigates the evolution of sex chromosomes in varanid lizards, showing retrotransposons mediated gene recruitment and recombination suppression in the W chromosome.

The paper analyzes cytological and genomic features of two Leptodactylus frog species to understand the evolution of multivalent sex chromosomes in meiosis.

The paper investigates how dosage compensation in Drosophila is regulated during development by analyzing 3D genome structures and histone modifications across sexes and tissues.

N-Power AI automates sample size and power analysis in clinical trials using an LLM-based framework, achieving perfect accuracy compared to statistical software.

SweepCluster detects gene-specific sweeps in prokaryotes by clustering polymorphisms with spatial awareness and pre-selection based on genetic signatures, achieving high accuracy and sensitivity.

This study identifies candidate sex-determining genes and examines dosage compensation mechanisms in reptiles using cytogenetic and linked-read sequencing.

The paper shows the default mode network (DMN) actively supports narrative speech comprehension, not just being suppressed, through neural couplings and hierarchical network interactions.

This study shows that older adults have reduced neural coupling with speakers during speech comprehension, which correlates with poorer speech understanding.

This study presents a nearly complete duck genome assembly, revealing conserved and convergent chromosome architectures between birds and mammals, including TAD organization and W chromosome evolution.

The paper presents high-quality chromosome-level genomes of two tilapia species, revealing repeat sequence evolution and identifying a candidate female-determining gene.

This study evaluates sequencing technologies and assembly strategies to improve genome completeness in a non-model organism, focusing on resolving dark matter regions like transposable elements and GC-rich areas.
