k-mer Similarity, Networks of Microbial Genomes, and Taxonomic Rank

mSystems, 2018
Microbial genomes have been shaped by parent-to-offspring (vertical) descent and lateral genetic transfer. These processes can be distinguished by alignment-based inference and comparison of phylogenetic trees for individual gene families, but this ...

Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

High‐quality genome of elite peanut cultivar ZH05 reveals subgenome asymmetry, pan‐genome diversity, and breeding insights

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A high‐quality reference genome for the elite peanut cultivar Zhonghua No. 5 revealed differing evolutionary paths between the two peanut subgenomes. SubA has higher overall gene expression and more open chromatin, whereas SubB has stronger structural organization, higher DNA methylation, and greater adaptive diversity associated with peanut evolution ...

Recent advances in the genomics of sugarcane (Saccharum)

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes advances in sugarcane genomics, evolution, classification, and breeding practices. It identifies key research bottlenecks and proposes an integrated research framework to facilitate predictive sugarcane breeding, which provides valuable references for genetic improvement of other complex polyploid crops.

Mitogenome structure and phylogenomics of the order Thoreales (Nemaliophycidae, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Organelle genomes offer a powerful tool for red algal evolutionary studies. Although the number of Rhodophyta genomes has increased substantially over the past 2 decades, only two mitochondrial genomes have been reported for the red algal order Thoreales.

Multiple historical processes obscure phylogenetic relationships in a taxonomically difficult group (Lobariaceae, Ascomycota)

Scientific Reports, 2019
In the age of next-generation sequencing, the number of loci available for phylogenetic analyses has increased by orders of magnitude. But despite this dramatic increase in the amount of data, some phylogenomic studies have revealed rampant gene-tree ...

Description of Flavicapitulum gen. nov. and two new species of Marmoreocelis from thermal habitats in the Americas

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Three novel taxa in the Coleofasciculales were observed in hot springs in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States, and in the Tabaconcito thermal springs on the Rio Tabacón in Costa Rica. Flavicapitulum vaporiphilum gen. et sp. nov. was located in a supported clade with Gracilinea and Marmoreocelis.

A phylogenomic contribution to the eukaryotic tree of life

, 2009
Depuis quelques années, la phylogénie moléculaire, c'est-à-dire l'étude des relations évolutives entre les êtres vivants en comparant des séquences d'ADN ou d'acides aminés, a profondément modifié notre vision de l'arbre des eucaryotes. Le schéma qui est actuellement accepté par le plus grand nombre voit cinq assemblages majeurs d'organismes regroupant

Phylogenomics of the American robin (Turdus migratorius) reveals hidden lineages and introgression

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Phylogenomic analyses of Turdus migratorius uncover four previously unrecognized lineages, including a divergent Baja California lineage (T. m. confinis). The results reveal complex evolutionary relationships that depart from simple models of continuous divergence, supported by evidence of introgression between the Mexican lineage and its previously ...
