The paper presents telomere-to-telomere genome assemblies of a Thoroughbred horse and donkey derived from a mule, revealing insights into equid centromere evolution and plasticity.

The paper sequences the rat Y chromosome and reveals a short pseudoautosomal region with high recombination rate and unique evolutionary features.

This study identifies aneuploidy in equine early pregnancy loss through whole genome sequencing and ddPCR, showing a 21.8% frequency and unique aneuploid types associated with fetal lethality.

The paper identifies a FGF4 retrogene on CFA12 as the cause of chondrodystrophy and intervertebral disc disease in dogs, with a high odds ratio for IVDD.
