Systems analysis of leaf anatomy and transcriptome using unsupervised machine learning provides insight on photosynthesis development and evolution in non‐model grasses

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The C4 photosynthesis includes intriguing leaf anatomies. The current model supports the placement of C3‐C4 intermediates as a middle point in the evolutionary trajectory from C3 to C4 photosynthesis. The known determinants involved in the differentiation of divergent photosynthetic leaves arose from the comparative analysis between both ends,

De novo transcriptome assembly, annotation and comparison of four ecological and evolutionary model salmonid fish species

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Salmonid fishes exhibit high levels of phenotypic and ecological variation and are thus ideal model systems for studying evolutionary processes of adaptive divergence and speciation.

First whole genome sequence of a diploid crop wild relative of the Andean tuber “oca”: Annotation and comparative genomic analysis of Oxalis oulophora

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Oxalis oulophora, a diploid species closely related to the octoploid Andean tuber crop oca (Oxalis tuberosa), was selected for whole‐genome sequencing to aid in understanding the origins of polyploidy and domestication in oca and its relatives (crop wild relatives).

Integrative chromosome‐scale genome analysis of cupuassu provides insights into witches' broom disease resistance and expands genomic resources for Theobroma

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) is a fruit tree native to the Brazilian Amazon and increasingly relevant to regional bioeconomies. Its cultivation is severely affected by witches’ broom disease (WBD), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa. While a chromosome‐scale genome of the susceptible genotype C1074 is available, the lack of a resistant ...

Seed shattering in a North American Oryzeae grain: Developmental and genomic signatures of early domestication

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Northern Wild Rice (NWR; Zizania palustris L.) is an aquatic grain endemic to North America and a member of the Oryzeae tribe. As an outcrossing crop with a short breeding history, domestication progress in cultivated NWR (cNWR) is ongoing, and seed shattering remains a major barrier to yield stability.

Population structure in a fungal human pathogen is potentially linked to pathogenicity

Nature Communications
Aspergillus flavus is a clinically and agriculturally important saprotrophic fungus responsible for severe human infections and extensive crop losses. Here, we analyze genomic data from 300 (117 clinical and 183 environmental) A.

Genomic hotspots: localized chromosome gene expansions identify lineage-specific innovations as targets for functional biodiversity and predictions of stress resilience

Frontiers in Marine Science
Functional and biodiversity genomics is essential for assessment and monitoring of planetary health and species-specific management in changing ecosystems. However, experimental knowledge of gene functions is limited to a few species, and dependencies on

Host and venom evolution in parasitoid wasps: does independently adapting to the same host shape the evolution of the venom gland transcriptome?

BMC Biology
Background Venoms have repeatedly evolved over 100 occasions throughout the animal tree of life, making them excellent systems for exploring convergent evolutionary novelty.
