The paper identifies promoter structural variants in maize that are associated with differential gene expression across tissues, often involving transposable elements.

This study analyzes genetic diversity and Rht gene changes in North American spring wheat over a century, showing shifts in allele frequencies and their impact on plant height.

This study quantifies genetic gains in HRS wheat over 60 years, finding annual yield gains of 0.61% but no improvement in grain protein since 1995.

The paper analyzes transposable elements and structural variation in maize genomes, finding that deletions of transposable elements contribute more to genomic differences than insertions.

This paper presents the first genome assembly of the giant sequoia, enabling analysis of disease resistance genes for conservation and evolutionary studies.
