Abstract: Abstract Transposable element (TE)-derived genes are increasingly recognized as major sources conferring essential traits in agriculturally important crops but underlying evolutionary mechanisms remain obscure. We updated previous annotations and constructed 18,744 FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE1 (FAR1)… read more here.

Abstract: Orphan genes (OGs) are defined as genes having no sequence similarity with genes present in other lineages. OGs have been regarded to play a key role in the development of lineage-specific adaptations and can also… read more here.
