The paper presents high-quality genome assemblies and annotations for two Yarrowia lipolytica strains, using a combination of short-read and long-read sequencing technologies.

The paper develops a pan-gene catalogue for Asian cultivated rice by creating a reference panel of 16 cultivars and identifying core and cultivar-specific genes.

The paper identifies bi-directionally expressed enhancers in maize with domestication signatures using integrated epigenomic and transcriptomic data from multiple tissues and inbred lines.

The paper constructs a pan-genome inversion index for Asian rice using 16 genomes and finds a high inversion rate with functional implications.

The paper presents 10 new high-quality genome assemblies for sorghum genotypes, identifying structural variants and SNPs linked to bioenergy traits.

A multi-genome analysis of maize reveals previously unknown variation in gene content, genome structure, and methylation.

The paper generates a large-scale genomic resource of sorghum EMS mutants, identifying disruptive mutations in over 15,500 genes and making data accessible via BSAseq integration and a web tool.

BSAseq identifies causal mutations in bulked F2 populations using a probabilistic model and interactive web tool.

The paper describes the development of a cloud-based platform for managing, analyzing, and distributing MaizeCODE data, enhancing reproducibility and accessibility.
