The paper identifies over 200 new mobile transposable element families in Arabidopsis thaliana using pangenomic analysis, showing they contribute to large-effect alleles despite being rare in most strains.

The paper curates and presents a collection of long-read genome assemblies for Arabidopsis thaliana accessions to enhance plant genome research.

The paper shows that transposable elements can transmit epigenetic changes across generations in Arabidopsis thaliana, often near stress-responsive genes, and these changes can affect gene expression and be subject to selection.

The paper constructs a comprehensive atlas of transposable element transcripts and their encoded products in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing their functional roles and regulatory networks.

The paper identifies a retrotransposon insertion in Arabidopsis FLC that increases environmental sensitivity, enabling an adaptive response to herbicide through epigenetic modulation.

The paper presents a bioinformatic framework for detecting transposable element insertion polymorphisms using short-read sequencing data, showing high specificity and sensitivity in Arabidopsis thaliana genomes.

This paper shows that H1 prevents H3K27me3 accumulation at telomeres and ITRs in Arabidopsis by restricting DNA accessibility to TRB proteins, while promoting PRC2 activity at genes.

The paper shows that reducing PRC2 activity in Arabidopsis suppresses TE activation in ddm1 mutants, challenging the idea that PRC2 compensates for DNA hypomethylation.

The paper shows that TE over-accumulation in autopolyploids is due to relaxed purifying selection and that some TE variants near stress response genes may aid local adaptation.

The paper identifies natural epigenetic variation linked to partial resistance to clubroot in Arabidopsis through QTL analysis and methylation studies.

The paper identifies histone H2A.Z-driven integration bias of transposable elements towards environmentally responsive genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.

This study examines if mild drought induces heritable phenotypic or DNA methylation changes in Arabidopsis, finding no transgenerational effects.
