BackgroundThe Mediterranean olive tree (Olea europaea subsp. europaea) was one of the first trees to be domesticated and is currently major agricultural importance in region as source oil. The molecular bases underlying phenotypic differences among cultivars, or between their wild relatives, remain poorly understood. Both cultivated have 46 chromosomes (2n).
Legumes are the third largest family of angiosperms and second most important crop class. Legume genomes have been shaped by extensive large-scale gene duplications, including an approximately 58 million year old whole genome duplication shared legumes.
Abstract Background The Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis is an ecologically and economically relevant edible marine bivalve, highly invasive resilient to biotic abiotic stressors causing recurrent massive mortalities in other bivalves. Although these traits have been recently linked with the maintenance of a high genetic variation within natural populations, factors underlying evolutionary success this species remain unclear.

Abstract Mammalian Y chromosomes are often neglected from genomic analysis. Due to their inherent assembly difficulties, high repeat content, and large ampliconic regions, only a handful of species have chromosome properly characterized. To date, just single human reference quality chromosome, European ancestry, is available due lack accessible methodology. facilitate the such complicated territory, we developed novel strategy sequence native, unamplified flow sorted DNA on MinION nanopore...
Abstract The evolution of winged insects revolutionized terrestrial ecosystems and led to the largest animal radiation on Earth. However, we still have an incomplete picture genomic changes that underlay this diversification. Mayflies, as one sister groups all other insects, are key understanding radiation.

A genomic database of all Earth's eukaryotic species could contribute to many scientific discoveries; however, only a tiny fraction have information available. In 2018, scientists across the world united under Earth BioGenome Project (EBP), aiming produce high-quality reference genomes containing ~1.5 million recognized species. As European node EBP, Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) sought implement new decentralised, equitable and inclusive model for producing genomes. For this, ERGA launched...
Abstract The Catalan Initiative for the Earth BioGenome Project (CBP) is an EBP-affiliated project network aimed at sequencing genome of >40 000 eukaryotic species estimated to live in Catalan-speaking territories (Catalan Linguistic Area, CLA). These represent a biodiversity hotspot. While covering less than 1% Europe, they are home about one fourth all known European species. include high proportion endemisms, many which threatened. This trend likely get worse as effects global...

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are members of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily, which utilize BMP receptors and intracellular SMADs to transduce their signals regulate cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis. Because mutations in receptor type IA (BMPRIA) SMAD4 found germline patients with colon cancer predisposition syndrome juvenile polyposis, because contribution cancers is largely unknown, we examined cells tissues for evidence signaling determined its effects....
Abstract Silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) is a keystone conifer of European montane forest ecosystems that has experienced large fluctuations in population size during the Quaternary and, more recently, due to land-use change. To forecast species’ future distribution and survival, it important investigate genetic basis adaptation environmental change, notably extreme events. For this purpose, we here provide first draft genome assembly annotation silver genome, established through...
Abstract Background Olive tree ( Olea europaea L. subsp . , Oleaceae) has been the most emblematic perennial crop for Mediterranean countries since its domestication around 6000 years ago in Levant. Two taxonomic varieties are currently recognized: cultivated (var. ) and wild sylvestris trees. However, it remains unclear whether olive cultivars derive from a single initial event followed by secondary diversification, or lineages result of more than single, independent primary event. To shed...
Sex determination (SD) shows huge variation among fish and a high evolutionary rate, as illustrated by the Pleuronectiformes (flatfishes). This order is characterized its adaptation to demersal life, compact genomes diversity of SD mechanisms. Here, we assembled Solea senegalensis genome, flatfish great commercial value, into 82 contigs (614 Mb) combining long- short-read sequencing, which were next scaffolded using highly dense genetic map (28,838 markers, 21 linkage groups), representing...
