Gene duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism allowing to provide new genetic
material and thus opportunities to acquire new gene functions for an organism, with major …

Polyploidy (genome duplication) is a pivotal force in evolution. However, the interactions
between parental genomes in a polyploid nucleus, frequently involving subgenome …

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 …

The recent breakthroughs in assembling long error-prone reads were based on the overlap-
layout-consensus (OLC) approach and did not utilize the strengths of the alternative de …

We describe here the reconstruction of the genome of the most recent common ancestor
(MRCA) of modern monocots and eudicots, accounting for 95% of extant angiosperms, with …

For millions of years, plants evolve plenty of structurally diverse secondary metabolites (SM)
to support their sessile lifestyles through continuous biochemical pathway innovation. While …

The origin of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum; AABBDD) has been a subject of controversy
and of intense debate in the scientific community over the last few decades. In 2015, three …

Bacterial genomes are simpler than mammalian ones, and yet assembling the former from
the data currently generated by high-throughput short-read sequencing machines still …

Comparative genomics is a powerful means to gain insight into the evolutionary processes
that shape the genomes of related species. As the number of sequenced genomes …
