Widespread adaptation of liquid biopsy for the early detection of cancer has yet to reach
clinical utility. Circulating tumor DNA is commonly detected though the presence of genetic …

Land plants underpin a multitude of ecosystem functions, support human livelihoods and
represent a critically important component of terrestrial biodiversity—yet many tens of …

Lychee is an exotic tropical fruit with a distinct flavor. The genome of cultivar 'Feizixiao'was
assembled into 15 pseudochromosomes, totaling~ 470 Mb. High heterozygosity (2.27%) …

Thanks to the development of high‐throughput sequencing technologies, target enrichment
sequencing of nuclear ultraconserved DNA elements (UCEs) now allows routine inference …

Mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) plays important roles in evolutionary and ecological
studies. It becomes routine to utilize multiple genes on mitogenome or the entire …

We report the first annotated chromosome-level reference genome assembly for pea, Gregor
Mendel's original genetic model. Phylogenetics and paleogenomics show genomic …

GetOrganelle is a state-of-the-art toolkit to accurately assemble organelle genomes from
whole genome sequencing data. It recruits organelle-associated reads using a modified …

The evolution in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has led to the development
of many different assembly algorithms, but few of them focus on assembling the organelle …

The transition to a terrestrial environment, termed terrestrialization, is generally regarded as
a pivotal event in the evolution and diversification of the land plant flora that changed the …

Ferns are the closest sister group to all seed plants, yet little is known about their genomes
other than that they are generally colossal. Here, we report on the genomes of Azolla …
