The paper identifies a supernumerary B-Chromosome in Atlantic switchgrass, showing its evolutionary origin and impact on gene expression and genomic diversity.

This study integrates multi-omic data with interpretable machine learning to identify genetic mechanisms underlying trait variation and phenotypic plasticity in switchgrass across environments.

The paper examines local adaptation between switchgrass and its rust pathogen across North America, finding that both host and parasite can be locally adapted despite varying genetic loci associated with rust severity.

The paper identifies genotype-by-weather interactions in switchgrass by analyzing phenological timings across multiple environments and weather cues.

The paper identifies geographic variation in the genetic basis of rust resistance in switchgrass, finding two large-effect QTLs and epistatic interactions that vary with location.
