This study identifies selection on standing genetic variation driving divergence between fiber flax and linseed using pangenome and population genomic analyses.

The paper presents high-quality genome assemblies for all 25 Aegilops species, revealing evolutionary dynamics and gene content variation through comparative genomics.

This study demonstrates that genomic selection improves flax breeding efficiency by reducing field testing costs and enhancing prediction accuracy for seed yield.

The paper generates near telomere-to-telomere genomes for Linum species to study chromosome evolution, finding lineage-specific DNA transposon expansion linked to pericentromeric restructuring.

MultiGS is a genomic prediction platform that integrates various models for breeders, showing improved accuracy and efficiency in different prediction scenarios.

The paper analyzes the genome and population genomics of Coffea arabica to reveal its diversification history and breeding-related genetic changes.

The paper reconstructs ancestral genomes using a new computational method and finds the monoploid chromosome number x = 9 for rosid and asterid orders.

The paper confirms a two-step hybridization model for the formation of hexaploidy in Brassiceae and shows subgenomes have distinct loss rates but functionally compatible genes.

The paper generates high-contiguity long-read assemblies of Brassica nigra, enabling localization of active centromeres and insights into the ancestral Brassica genome.

This paper presents the avocado genome, revealing its phylogenetic position, introgressive hybridization, and pathogen-driven gene space adaptation.
