This study presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly of the brittle star and identifies conserved gene expression patterns during regeneration across invertebrates and vertebrates.

Read2Tree processes raw sequencing reads to build phylogenetic trees, outperforming conventional methods in speed and accuracy across diverse datasets.

This study shows that FGF signaling is crucial for skeleton development and regeneration in brittle stars, with similar gene regulatory roles as in other deuterostomes.

OMA standalone is a tool for orthology inference across public and custom genomes, enabling analysis of both existing and user-provided data.

The paper shows taxon sampling unevenly impacts gene tree nodes and introduces a two-step method to construct more reliable model gene trees using SwissTree.
