This study identifies centromeric repeat turnovers in Arabidopsis species, revealing evolutionary mechanisms and the role of genetic drift and centromere drive in repeat replacement.

This study shows that recombination suppression through chromosomal rearrangements preceded fissiparous asexuality in planarians, reducing the costs of asexuality.

The paper presents an improved pea genome assembly using long-read sequencing and other techniques, resulting in a highly contiguous and complete genome resource.

This study shows that Rhynchospora tenuis undergoes obligate achiasmy in both sexes, leading to clonal-like inheritance through post-meiotic selection and TE-driven segregation distortion.

The paper links karyotype evolution to meiotic recombination by analyzing holocentric genomes and crossover patterns in Rhynchospora species.

The paper analyzes Tyba satellite DNA repeats and transposable elements in holocentric species to reveal evolutionary dynamics of repeat-based holocentromeres across a pangenome.

The paper investigates how centromere divergence and allopolyploidy influence genome evolution in carnivorous sundews, revealing structural differences between species with distinct chromosomal architectures.

This paper presents chromosome-scale genome assemblies and regulatory element annotations for planarians, revealing conservation of regulatory regions despite rapid structural divergence.

The paper assembles and analyzes the 81.6 Mb centromere of pea chromosome 6, revealing its structure and evolutionary mechanisms in metapolycentric chromosomes.

The paper develops an assembly-free method using nanopore reads to characterize satellite DNA arrays in Lathyrus sativus, revealing differences in their organization and association with LTR-retrotransposons.
