TL;DR: The draft assembly of the 20-gigabase genome of Norway spruce (Picea abies), the first available for any gymnosperm, is presented, revealing numerous long (>10,000 base pairs) introns, gene-like fragments, uncharacterized long non-coding RNAs and short RNAs, which opens up new genomic avenues for conifer forestry and breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results show that both coding and non-coding changes contribute to adaptation, and Haplotype blocks, often spanning multiple genes and maintained by selection, are associated with genetic differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
BESST - Efficient scaffolding of large fragmented assemblies
TL;DR: A comprehensive comparison of BESST against the most popular stand-alone scaffolders on a large variety of datasets concludes that information sources other than the quantity of links, as is commonly used, can provide useful information about genome structure when scaffolding.
Journal ArticleDOI
SweGen : a whole-genome data resource of genetic variability in a cross-section of the Swedish population
Adam Ameur,Johan Dahlberg,Pall I.

TL;DR: The SweGen data set is described, a comprehensive map of genetic variation in the Swedish population that represents a basic resource for clinical genetics laboratories as well as for sequencing-based association studies by providing information on genetic variant frequencies in a cohort that is well matched to national patient cohorts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloche is a bHLH-PAS transcription factor that drives haemato-vascular specification

TL;DR: The isolation of the cloche gene was succeeded in isolating and it was discovered that it encodes a PAS-domain-containing bHLH transcription factor, and that it is expressed in a highly specific spatiotemporal pattern starting during late gastrulation.
