Conservatory, an orthogroup-centric conserved noncoding sequence finder, catalogs 2.3 million unique CNSs across 314 plant genomes and reveals regulatory elements older than angiosperms and seed plants.

The paper investigates the genetic basis of twin and single spots in tobacco, finding that they arise primarily from deletions, translocations, and aneuploidy rather than homologous recombination.

The paper introduces LD-CNV, a method to detect chromosomal translocations by analyzing linkage disequilibrium between copy number variable loci in plant genomes.

The paper investigates genomic outcomes of haploid induction crosses in potato, finding most dihaploids lack residual pollinator DNA and showing chromosomal addition and dosage variation.

The paper analyzes genome instability in potato plants regenerated from protoplasts, finding widespread aneuploidy and chromosomal segmental changes.

This study shows CRISPR-Cas9 in Arabidopsis can induce duplication and translocation through nonhomologous recombination of distant DNA breaks.
