This paper presents a non-destructive DNA extraction method from DESS-preserved specimens and environmental samples for DNA barcoding, demonstrating its application on nematodes and other small organisms.

DESS (DMSO/EDTA/saturated NaCl) kept DNA at room temperature in animals, seagrasses and a brown alga, even after evaporating from bird muscle, but dissolves gastropod shells and holothurian ossicles.

This study identifies diurnal regulation of the SOS pathway and sodium excretion mechanisms in Vigna marina, revealing a QTL region with structural rearrangements and cis-regulatory motifs linked to salt tolerance.

This study presents long-read genome assemblies of 12 Vigna species, revealing new WOX transcription factors and transcriptional changes linked to stress tolerance.

This study reduces AmpliSeq library preparation costs by miniaturizing PCR reactions, achieving 100% success with 1500 amplicons in 2.4 L reactions.
