This review commemorates the 40th anniversary of DNA sequencing, a period in which we
have already witnessed multiple technological revolutions and a growth in scale from a few …

Genomes represent the starting point of genetic studies. Since the discovery of DNA
structure, scientists have devoted great efforts to determine their sequence in an exact way …

Visual understanding of complex urban street scenes is an enabling factor for a wide range
of applications. Object detection has benefited enormously from large-scale datasets …

Productivity of ruminant livestock depends on the rumen microbiota, which ferment
indigestible plant polysaccharides into nutrients used for growth. Understanding the …

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 …

Determining the genome sequence of an organism is challenging, yet fundamental to
understanding its biology. Over the past decade, thousands of human genomes have been …

Parasitic nematodes (roundworms) and platyhelminths (flatworms) cause debilitating
chronic infections of humans and animals, decimate crop production and are a major …

The lion's share of bacteria in various environments cannot be cloned in the laboratory and
thus cannot be sequenced using existing technologies. A major goal of single-cell genomics …

Wild relatives of crops are an important source of genetic diversity for agriculture, but their
gene repertoire remains largely unexplored. We report the establishment and analysis of a …

Motivation: Next-generation sequencing allows us to sequence reads from a microbial
environment using single-cell sequencing or metagenomic sequencing technologies …
