Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and ephrins have key roles in regulation of the migration and
adhesion of cells required to form and stabilize patterns of cell organization during …

We report the draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa. Integration of
shotgun sequence assembly with genetic mapping enabled chromosome-scale …

Sorghum, an African grass related to sugar cane and maize, is grown for food, feed, fibre
and fuel. We present an initial analysis of the ∼730-megabase Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench …

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga whose lineage diverged from land
plants over 1 billion years ago. It is a model system for studying chloroplast-based …

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important regulators of tissue physiology
and disease processes including cancer. To delineate genome-wide lncRNA expression, …

Abstract Comparison of DNA sequences from different species is a fundamental method for
identifying functional elements in genomes. Here, we describe the VISTA family of tools …

VISTA is a program for visualizing global DNA sequence alignments of arbitrary length. It
has a clean output, allowing for easy identification of similarity, and is easily configurable, …

Eucalypts are the world’s most widely planted hardwood trees. Their outstanding diversity,
adaptability and growth have made them a global renewable resource of fibre and energy. …

Here we analyse genetic variation, population structure and diversity among 3,010 diverse
Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) genomes from the 3,000 Rice Genomes Project. Our …

The western clawed frog Xenopus tropicalis is an important model for vertebrate development
that combines experimental advantages of the African clawed frog Xenopus laevis with …
