The paper provides structural and phylogenetic evidence supporting the occurrence of the ancestral angiosperm ε-WGD, resolving a long-standing debate.

This paper introduces the Orthology Index (OI) to robustly identify orthologous synteny, demonstrating its scalability and reliability across diverse polyploidization events and applications in plant evolutionary genomics.

Phytop detects and visualizes incomplete lineage sorting and hybridization using species trees to clarify phylogenetic uncertainty.

The paper investigates purifying selection in the rarest pine species, finding efficient purging of harmful variants despite extreme population size reduction.

TEsorter classifies transposable elements at the lineage level using conserved protein domains, offering speed, sensitivity, and precision for LTR retrotransposons.
