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.

The paper presents a gap-free genome assembly of mung beans and identifies structural variations and selection pressures during domestication.

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.
