Insertions and deletions constitute the second most important source of natural genomic
variation. Insertions and deletions make up to 25% of genomic variants in humans and are …

Alignment-based methods have faced disadvantages in sequence comparison and
phylogeny reconstruction due to their high computational complexity. Alignment-free …

Despite having important biological implications, insertion and deletion (indel) events are
often disregarded or mishandled during phylogenetic inference. In multiple sequence …

Culture-independent 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding is a commonly used method for
microbiome profiling. To achieve more quantitative cell fraction estimates, it is important to …

Genome comparison for large and complex polyploid crop genomes is a highly complex
venture, yet it is critical. Given a rising demand for food coupled with yield-impacting …
