DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbac210
Abstract: Abstract Accurate prediction of open reading frames (ORFs) is important for studying and using genome sequences. Ribosomes move along mRNA strands with a step of three nucleotides and datasets carrying this information can be used… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msy188
Abstract: Abstract A major goal of population genetics has been to determine the extent by which selection at linked sites influences patterns of neutral nucleotide diversity in the genome. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that diversity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.10.08.511291
Abstract: Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation (DNAme) are thought to comprise an invaluable adaptive toolkit in the early stages of local adaptation, especially when genetic diversity is constrained. However, the link between genetic diversity and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1755-0998.13707
Abstract: Nucleotide diversity remains an important statistic in population genetic/genomic studies. Although recent advances in massive sequencing make generating sequence data sets cheaper and faster, currently used technologies often introduce substantial amounts of missing nucleotides in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0217081
Abstract: Bread wheat (AABBDD) originated from the diploid progenitor Triticum urartu (AA), a relative of Aegilops speltoides (BB), and Ae. tauschii (DD). The DREB1 transcriptional factor plays key regulatory role in low-temperature tolerance. The modern breeding… read more here.
