The paper disentangles shape and size variation in maize canopies by identifying a genetic component of intrinsic scaling independent of flowering time.

This paper models flowering time plasticity in maize using a physiological reaction norm, revealing genotype-specific differences in environmental perception and adaptation strategies.

The paper assembles a genome of a lima bean cultivar to identify and analyze a resistance locus against downy mildew.

SPEARS evaluates haplotype reconstruction accuracy by simulating ancestral haplotypes and assessing performance across genomic regions.

The paper develops a pipeline, C3S-LAA, to correct errors and assemble SMRT reads from multiplexed amplicon libraries, showing improved accuracy over standard methods.
