Higher order repeat structures reflect diverging evolutionary paths in maize centromeres and knobs
Genome BiologyBackground Highly repetitive tandem repeat arrays, known as satellite DNAs, are enriched in low-recombination regions such as centromeres. Satellite arrays often contain complex internal structures called higher-order repeats (HORs), which may have ...

Current and Forthcoming Approaches for Benchmarking Genetic and Genomic Diversity
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The current attrition of biodiversity extends beyond loss of species and unique populations to steady loss of a vast genomic diversity that remains largely undescribed. Yet the accelerating development of new techniques allows us to survey entire genomes

The human gut microbiome across the life course
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Genetic diversity of Eucalyptus hybrids estimated by genomic and EST microsatellite markers
, 2011 The knowledge of breeding impacts on the genetic diversity of hybrids of Eucalyptus is crucial to the exploration of genetic resources. We estimated genetic polymorphic parameters of 112 hybrids of Eucalyptus spp. using 10 genomic simple sequence repeats

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Lessons in the genomic diversity of malaria [PDF]
Nature Genetics, 2007 Genome-wide characterization of Plasmodium falciparum genetic diversity represents an important step in malaria genetics. The organizational and collaborative efforts to reach this goal and the results on linkage disequilibrium and genetic diversity among worldwide isolates provide general lessons.

Genome diversity of Leishmania aethiopica
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 ABSTRACT Leishmania aethiopica is a zoonotic Old World parasite transmitted by Phlebotomine sand flies and causing cutaneous leishmaniasis in Ethiopia and Kenya. Despite a range of clinical manifestations and a high prevalence of treatment failure, L. aethiopica is
