Mapping chromosome neighborhoods [PDF]
The discovery of topologically associating domains (TADs) changed the way researchers think about gene expression and chromosome structure. Jeffrey Perkel takes a closer look into these “chromosome neighborhoods.”

Interspecies Chromosome Mapping in Caprimulgiformes, Piciformes, Suliformes, and Trogoniformes (Aves): Cytogenomic Insight into Microchromosome Organization and Karyotype Evolution in Birds. [PDF]
Interchromosomal rearrangements involving microchromosomes are rare events in birds. To date, they have been found mostly in Psittaciformes, Falconiformes, and Cuculiformes, although only a few orders have been analyzed.

Chromosome maps of legumes [PDF]
Legumes are of immense importance as food and feed, and for sustainable agriculture, due to their ability to fix nitrogen. Here, the chromosome maps of the legumes soybean (Glycine max), Lotus (Lotus japonicus), and red clover (Trifolium pratense) are reviewed.
