Abstract We present GenEra ( https://github.com/josuebarrera/GenEra ), a DIAMOND-fueled gene-family founder inference framework that addresses previously raised limitations and biases in genomic phylostratigraphy, such as homology detection failure. also reduces computational time from several months to few days for any genome of interest. analyze the emergence taxonomically restricted gene families during major evolutionary transitions plants, animals, fungi. Our results indicate impact...
The root systems of most plant species are aided by the soil-foraging capacities symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Glomeromycotina subphylum. Despite recent advances in our knowledge ecology and molecular biology this mutualistic symbiosis, understanding AM genome is just emerging. Presented here a close to T2T assembly model fungus Rhizophagus irregularis DAOM197198, achieved through Nanopore long-read DNA sequencing Hi-C data. This haploid R. irregularis, alongside short-...
Complex multicellularity has emerged independently across a few eukaryotic lineages and is often associated with the rise of elaborate, tightly coordinated developmental processes
Abstract Complex multicellularity has emerged independently across a few eukaryotic lineages and is often associated with the rise of elaborate, tightly coordinated developmental processes. How development are interconnected in evolution major question biology. The hourglass model embryonic depicts how processes conserved during evolution, predicting morphological molecular divergence early late embryo stages, bridged by mid-embryonic (phylotypic) period linked to formation basic body plan....
Abstract The emergence of new genes is an important driver evolutionary novelty. Yet, we lack a conceptual and computational approach that accurately traces gene-family founder events effectively associates them with trait innovation major radiation events. Here, present GenEra, DIAMOND-fuelled inference framework addresses previously raised limitations biases gene detection in genomic phylostratigraphy by accounting for homology failure (HDF). We demonstrate how GenEra can accelerate...
Abstract The root systems of most plant species are aided by the soil foraging capacities symbiotic Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Glomeromycotina subphylum. Despite recent advances in our knowledge ecology and molecular biology this mutualistic symbiosis, understanding AM genome is just emerging. Presented here contiguous highest-quality nuclear mitochondrial assemblies an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus to date, achieved through Nanopore long-read DNA sequencing Hi-C data. This haploid...
