This study investigates genomic imprinting in Scots pine using haploid megagametophyte tissue to resolve parental alleles, finding no evidence of imprinting in conifers.

The paper analyzes biome niche conservatism in the Berlinia clade, finding forest as the ancestral biome with no directional shifts back to forest, and no link between biome shifts and diversification rates.

This study evaluates species-specific c0t-1 DNA blockers for exome capture in Pinus sylvestris, showing improved performance over universal blockers.

The paper develops a 50K SNP genotyping array for Scots pine to enable genome-wide analyses and improve genetic research and breeding programs.

The paper creates a gene expression atlas for Pinus sylvestris across five tissues, identifying tissue-preferential and tissue-specific genes.

This study uses phylogenomic data to analyze floral trait evolution in the Anthonotha clade, revealing high diversity in floral trait shifts and a trend towards organ number reduction.
