Genome duplications, genomic conflict, and rapid phenotypic evolution characterize the Cretaceous radiation of Fagales

Y.-Y. Yang, G. W. Stull, X. Qu, L. Zhao, Y. Hu, Z. Wang, H. Ma, D. Li, S. A. Smith, T. Yi

This study examines the relationship between phenotypic and genomic evolution in Fagales, finding an 'early burst' model of diversification linked to gene duplication and genomic conflict during the Cretaceous.

Cancer mutations rewire the RNA methylation specificity of METTL3-METTL14

C. Zhang, L. Tunes, M.-H. Hsieh, P. Wang, A. Kumar, B. B. Khadgi, Y.-Y. Yang, K. A. Doxtader, E. Herrell, O. Koczy, R. Setlem, X. Zhang, B. M. Evers, Y. Wang, C. Xing, , Y. Nam

The paper shows that a cancer mutation in METTL14 changes RNA methylation specificity, promoting oncogenesis by altering gene expression without increasing global m6A levels.

Gene duplications and phylogenomic conflict underlie major pulses of phenotypic evolution in gymnosperms

G. W. Stull, X.-J. Qu, C. Parins-Fukuchi, Y.-Y. Yang, J.-B. Yang, Z.-Y. Yang, Y. Hu, H. Ma, P. S. Soltis, D. E. Soltis, D.-Z. Li, S. A. Smith, T.-S. Yi

This study links genomic changes like WGD and gene duplication to phenotypic innovation and diversification in gymnosperms, showing ecological factors also drive diversification after angiosperms.
