The paper introduces MAP, a metabarcoding pipeline that handles long-read data and provides accurate biodiversity estimates, outperforming existing platforms for COI metabarcoding.

The paper introduces BIP, a pipeline for DNA barcode inference from sequencing data, which outperforms existing tools by accurately distinguishing target and non-target sequences.

The paper tests the performance of Qitan Technology's nanopore sequencer, finding it generates accurate DNA barcodes at a lower cost than Oxford Nanopore Technologies' sequencer.

The paper shows that chromatin remodelling by NuRD enables enhancer resetting in response to ERK signalling in mouse ES cells, facilitating a rapid and precise transcriptional response.

The paper analyzes ecological interactions of emerald ash borer beetles using DNA metabarcoding, finding that collection date and life stage best predict interaction detection.

This study examines chimeric sequences in nematode-infected arthropods using nanopore sequencing, finding higher incidence in 18S than COI and linking chimera formation to DNA stability and sequence conservation.

This study demonstrates a cost-effective method for DNA barcoding using Oxford Nanopore Technologies, enabling the processing of 100,000 specimens per flow cell at $0.01 per specimen.

The paper shows that MTA proteins in ES cell NuRD complex are functionally redundant, and NuRD is essential for maintaining differentiation trajectory during early lineage commitment.

This study shows the NuRD complex regulates enhancer chromatin structure and Mediator access to control transcription during lineage commitment in ES cells.
