The paper presents a high-accuracy T2T rhesus macaque genome assembly, identifies subtelomeric repeats as a challenge, and reveals new genomic features and functional elements in these regions.

The paper presents 320 nearly-complete East Asian genome assemblies, revealing new genetic diversity and structural variations not present in existing global pangenomes.

The paper develops a method to detect and analyze NUMTs in human and non-human primate genomes, revealing their genomic features, population dynamics, and evolutionary implications.

The paper identifies a human-specific genomic structure formed by a joint segmental duplication that drives transcriptional readthrough and expression fine-tuning of NPEPPS-TBC1D3.

The paper identifies three ancient segmental duplications at the human chromosome 2 fusion site, showing their differential distribution due to incomplete lineage sorting and their regulatory impact on gene expression.

This study presents genome assemblies and analyses of macaques to explore genetic variation, population history, and evolutionary differences between species and humans.
