ViroSeek: a viral detection pipeline for second-generation sequencing

ViroSeek is a viral detection pipeline for second-generation sequencing data that provides a clear viral taxonomy table through automated quality control, sequence removal, assembly, and quantification.

Identification of two genomic cryptotypes of Plasmodium malariae in Africa

The paper identifies two genetically distinct clusters of Plasmodium malariae in Africa and finds evidence of adaptive evolution in these populations.

Genomic insights into Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium simium host shifts in Latin America

The paper investigates the evolutionary history and population genetics of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium simium in Latin America, revealing host shifts and genetic exchanges between the species.

Phylogeography of bar-tailed godwits: pre-LGM structure in Beringia and westward colonization of post-glacial Europe

This study uses nextRAD sequencing to analyze the population genetics of bar-tailed godwits, revealing pre-LGM structure in Beringia and post-glacial westward colonization of Europe.

Genomic exploration of the complex journey of Plasmodium vivax in Latin America

This study uses whole genome sequencing of Plasmodium vivax isolates to reveal a complex evolutionary history, showing that current Latin American populations mainly originated from an extinct European lineage with possible West African contributions.
