The widespread occurrence of repetitive stretches of DNA in genomes of organisms across
the tree of life imposes fundamental challenges for sequencing, genome assembly, and …

Structural genomic variants (SVs) are ubiquitous and play a major role in adaptation and
speciation. Yet, comparative and population genomics have focused predominantly on gene …

Genomic differences range from single nucleotide differences to complex structural
variations. Current methods typically annotate sequence differences ranging from SNPs to …

A complete and accurate genome sequence provides a fundamental tool for functional
genomics and DNA-informed breeding. Here, we assemble a high-quality genome (contig …

Computing in science and engineering is now ubiquitous: digital technologies underpin,
accelerate, and enable new, even transformational, research in all domains. Access to an …

Low-cost whole-genome assembly has enabled the collection of haplotype-resolved
pangenomes for numerous organisms. In turn, this technological change is encouraging the …

High quality reference genomes are crucial to understanding genome function, structure and
evolution. The availability of reference genomes has allowed us to start inferring the role of …

Although single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) were initially thought to make‐up the
majority of selectable variation (Morin, Luikart, & Wayne, 2004; Sachidanandam et al …

Structural variation (SV) constitutes an important type of genetic mutations providing the raw
material for evolution. Here, we uncover the genome-wide spectrum of intra-and interspecific …

Over two thousand plant species have been modified morphologically through cultivation
and human use. Here, we review three aspects of crop domestication that are currently …
