High‐Quality Genome Assembly and Annotation of Ceratonia siliqua Provide Insights Into the Secondary Loss of Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua L.), an evergreen legume native to West Asia and long cultivated throughout the Mediterranean basin, is valued for its drought tolerance, nutritious pods, and ecological value. Despite its economic and environmental importance, genomic resources for this species have been limited.

ERGA-BGE reference genome of Xylophaga dorsalis - a common deep-sea wood-boring bivalve with Atlantic-Mediterranean distribution [version 2; peer review: 1 approved, 3 approved with reservations]

Open Research Europe
Xylophaga dorsalis is a common Atlantic-Mediterranean mollusc that plays a crucial role in deep-sea habitats, where it digests wood that reaches the seabed through a unique symbiosis with specialised bacteria. The reference genome of X.

A Latitudinal Gradient of Reference Genomes

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Global inequality rooted in legacies of colonialism and uneven development can lead to systematic biases in scientific knowledge. In ecology and evolutionary biology, findings, funding and research effort are disproportionately concentrated at high latitudes, while biological diversity is concentrated at low latitudes.

Auto-phylo v2 and auto-phylo-pipeliner: building advanced, flexible, and reusable pipelines for phylogenetic inferences, estimation of variability levels and identification of positively selected amino acid sites

Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics
The vast amount of genome sequence data that is available, and that is predicted to drastically increase in the near future, can only be efficiently dealt with by building automated pipelines. Indeed, the Earth Biogenome Project will produce high-quality

Genomic Insights Into the Origin, Decline and Recovery of the Once Critically Endangered Iberian Lynx

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Iberian lynx was at the brink of extinction by the year 2000 but has since then, and thanks to intensive conservation measures, gone through a remarkable recovery, providing a much‐welcomed and encouraging conservation success story.

Toward a Global Science of Conservation Genomics: Coldspots in Genomic Resources Highlight a Need for Equitable Collaborations and Capacity Building

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Advances in genomic sequencing have magnified our understanding of ecological and evolutionary mechanisms relevant to biodiversity conservation. As a result, the field of conservation genomics has grown rapidly. Genomic data can be effective in guiding conservation decisions by revealing fine‐scale patterns of genetic diversity and adaptation.

Biodiversity Genomics Research Practices Require Harmonising to Meet Stakeholder Needs in Conservation

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity resilience relies on genetic diversity, which sustains the evolutionary potential of organisms in dynamic ecosystems. Genomics is a powerful tool for accurately estimating genetic diversity across genomes of species and populations.
