DOI: 10.1007/s00606-017-1446-3
Abstract: Allopolyploidy is a peculiar process entailing the cohabitation of two (or more) divergent genomes. Consequences on plant genomes are varied and can utlimately alter gene expression and regulatory interactions. Most studies have explored polyploid expression… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10811-020-02325-8
Abstract: Macroalgal domestication and farming can induce significant ecological and biological changes in exploited species. In the red macroalga, Agarophyton chilense, marine farming is based on clonal propagation by cuttings of the largest plants. This type… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-15204-0
Abstract: A number of recent papers report that standing genetic variation in natural populations includes ubiquitous polymorphisms within target sites for Cas9-based gene drive (CGD) and that these “drive resistant alleles” (DRA) preclude the successful application… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-04740-3
Abstract: Profiling of wild and laboratory tsetse populations using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing allowed us to examine whether the “Wigglesworthia-Sodalis-Wolbachia dogma” operates across species and populations. The most abundant taxa, in wild and laboratory populations,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2013043118
Abstract: Significance The phenomenon of retroposition (the reintegration of reverse-transcribed RNA into the genome) has been well studied in comparisons between species and has been identified as a source of evolutionary innovation. However, less attention has… read more here.
