This study examines differences between Infinium MethylationEPIC v1 and v2, showing high array-level concordance but probe-level variation, and recommends accounting for version differences in analyses.

The paper identifies evolutionarily conserved DNA methylation sites in great apes and shows their association with cancer but not other diseases.

This study shows that using updated reference genomes like T2T-CHM13 and pangenomes increases CpG detection in DNA methylation analysis and improves probe specificity in arrays, leading to more accurate findings in cancer studies.

The paper uses whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and sex determination system loss in northern pike across North America, finding reduced diversity and a patchwork distribution of the amhby gene.
