The paper presents the first genome assembly of Potamopyrgus antipodarum, revealing a recent whole-genome duplication and its potential role in asexuality transitions.

This paper analyzes homoeologous gene conversion and exchange in Gossypium allopolyploids using a new method and finds little evidence for gene conversion, with only one shared homoeologous exchange event identified.

This study uses a modified ABBA-BABA test to detect homoeologous gene flow in allotetraploid coffee, finding maternal bias in plastid-targeted genes and evidence of natural selection shaping gene flow direction.

This paper sequences and analyzes the genomes of two New Zealand snail species, showing their genetic similarity, introgression between them, and their relationship to the invasive P. antipodarum.

pSONIC improves ortholog identification in polyploid species by incorporating synteny, placing 75-90% of genes into orthologous groups with higher accuracy than methods without synteny.

The paper introduces CyMIRA, a curated database of cytonuclear molecular interactions in Arabidopsis, to standardize and compare studies on evolutionary genomic data.

The paper corrects errors in the Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 mitochondrial reference genome using publicly available Illumina data.
