Complementing model species with model clades.
Model species continue to underpin groundbreaking plant science research. At the same time, the phylogenetic resolution of the land plant Tree of Life continues to improve. The intersection of these two research paths creates a unique opportunity to further extend the usefulness of model species across larger taxonomic groups. Here... -

Ancient DNA genomics and the renaissance of herbaria.
Herbaria are undergoing a renaissance as valuable sources of genomic data for exploring plant evolution, ecology, and diversity. Ancient DNA retrieved from herbarium specimens can provide unprecedented glimpses into past plant communities, their interactions with biotic and abiotic factors, and the genetic changes that have occurred over time. Here, we...Burbano, Hernán A. ; Gutaker, Rafal M.

The genome sequence of the tree of heaven, Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, 1916.
We present a genome assembly from an individual (tree of heaven; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Sapindales; Simaroubaceae). The genome sequence is 939 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies are 661.1 kilobases and 161.1 kilobases long, respectively.Schley, Rowan J. ; Leitch, Ilia J. ; Christenhusz, Maarten J.

Comparative analysis of repeat content in plant genomes, large and small.
The DNA Features pipeline is the analysis pipeline at EMBL-EBI that annotates repeat elements, including transposable elements. With Ensembl’s goal to stay at the cutting edge of genome annotation, we proved that this pipeline needed an update. We then created a new analysis that allowed the Ensembl database to store...Argentin, Joris ; Bolser, Dan ; Kersey, Paul J. ; Flicek, Paul
