The paper generates genome assemblies for two arid-zone marsupials and finds contrasting demographic responses to historical climate changes.

The paper identifies dunnart-specific enhancers and promoters in craniofacial development, showing divergence in regulatory landscapes between marsupials and placental mammals.

The paper identifies loss-of-function mutations in ASIP and MC1R genes associated with coat color variation in marsupials.

The paper investigates how marsupial neonates use cathelicidin antimicrobial peptides for immune protection through genomic clustering and enhancer sharing, showing their effectiveness in a sepsis model.

The paper presents a de novo transcriptome and improved genome assembly for the fat-tailed dunnart, providing valuable genomic resources for marsupial research.

The paper generates a chromosome-scale reference genome for the eastern quoll and identifies genomic signatures of historical decline and pelage color evolution.

The paper shows that WNT5A and limb development genes are reused in the evolution of flight membranes across mammals.

The paper identifies Sfrp2 as a multifunctional regulator controlling coat pattern and color in African striped mice through transcriptomics, modeling, and gene editing.

This paper presents a chromosome-scale hybrid genome assembly for the extinct Tasmanian tiger, providing new genomic resources for marsupial research.
