Comparative genomics of Australian isolates of the wheat stem rust pathogen Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici reveals extensive polymorphism in candidate effector genes [PDF]
The wheat stem rust fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) is one of the most destructive pathogens of wheat. In this study, a draft genome was built for a founder Australian Pgt isolate of pathotype (pt.) 21-0 (collected in 1954) by next ...

Integrating genome assemblies with MAIA [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: De novo assembly of a eukaryotic genome with next-generation sequencing data is still a challenging task. Over the past few years several assemblers have been developed, often suitable for one specific type of sequencing data.

Genome maps across 26 human populations reveal population-specific patterns of structural variation. [PDF]
Large structural variants (SVs) in the human genome are difficult to detect and study by conventional sequencing technologies. With long-range genome analysis platforms, such as optical mapping, one can identify large SVs (>2 kb) across the genome in ...

GAM: Genomic Assemblies Merger
Motivations. In the last 3 years more than 20 assemblers have been proposed to tackle the hard task of assembling. Recent evaluation efforts (Assemblathon 1 and GAGE) demonstrated that none of these tools clearly outperforms the others. However, results clearly show that some assemblers performs better than others on specific regions and statistics ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
