The genome of black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray)

Gerald A. Tuskan, +115 more
- 15 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: The draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa, has been reported in this paper, with more than 45,000 putative protein-coding genes identified.

The genome of black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray) - eScholarship

TL;DR: Analyzing the draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa, revealed a whole-genome duplication event; about 8000 pairs of duplicated genes from that event survived in the Populus genome.

Sea anemone genome reveals the gene repertoire and genomic organization of the eumetazoan ancestor - eScholarship

TL;DR: A comparative analysis of the draft genome of an emerging cnidarian model, the starlet anemone Nematostella vectensis, implies that the genome of the eumetazoan ancestor was similarly complex, and that fly and nematode genomes have been modified via sequence divergence, gene and intron loss, and genomic rearrangement.
