This study compares the molecular mechanisms of photosymbiosis in giant clams with corals, identifying conserved and divergent strategies in nutrient exchange.

This study compares genomes of symbiotic and non-symbiotic Palythoa species to investigate symbiosis evolution and palytoxin origin, finding that palytoxin likely originates from associated bacteria.

This paper reports the de novo genome assembly of the interspecific hybrid grapevine 'Maeve', revealing its origin from hybridization between an unknown V. vinifera cultivar and V. riparia Gloire.

The paper reports genome and transcriptome analyses of four tissues in the coral Fimbriaphyllia ancora, revealing tissue-specific gene expression and biological functions.
