Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.Insectary‐reared mosquitoes were simultaneously assessed for species identification, bloodmeal source analysis and Plasmodium detection, using a single multiplexed sequencing run on the MinION sequencing platform. The method was applied to 150 insectary‐reared mosquitoes, representing nine species blood‐fed with five vertebrate hosts and 40 samples for

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

Large scale expansion of mobile elements in specific hotspot regions of the German outbreak _Escherichia coli_ O104:H4 [PDF]
, 2011 The outbreak strain of _E. coli_ O104:H4 has been sequenced by several groups and made available publicly for CrowdSourcing purposes. Genome comparisons of the complete finished sequence of TY2482 (BGI), have been made with the draft assemblies of ...

Long‐term effects of clear‐cutting forestry on ectomycorrhizal fungi in boreal forest
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Clear‐cutting is detrimental to ectomycorrhizal fungi in a short time perspective, but long‐term effects on species richness and community composition are uncertain. To evaluate ecological sustainability of rotation forestry, we examined to what extent communities similar to those in old forests develop within the time frame of a rotation ...

Structural Variations Contribute to Subspeciation and Yield Heterosis in Rice
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Yield heterosis has been extensively exploited in hybrid breeding, with intersubspecific hybrids often exhibiting the most pronounced effects. However, developing elite hybrids remains a laborious and time‐consuming process. The genetic basis of heterosis has been debated for over a century, hindered largely by the lack of high‐quality genomes.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Clubroot, a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a severe threat to global production of Brassicaceae oilseed crops and vegetables. To date, there has been a serious lack of clubroot‐resistant germplasms in Brassica napus (AACC), necessitating the urgent development of novel disease‐resistant germplasm.

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Crop breeding has entered the pangenomics era, unlocking a far more comprehensive view of genetic diversity than a single reference genome can capture. In rice (Oryza sativa), a staple crop critical to global food security, the construction of pangenome resources has uncovered extensive structural variations (SVs), presence/absence variations (
