Journal ArticleDOI

The Sorghum bicolor genome and the diversification of grasses

TL;DR: An initial analysis of the ∼730-megabase Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench genome is presented, placing ∼98% of genes in their chromosomal context using whole-genome shotgun sequence validated by genetic, physical and syntenic information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repeated polyploidization of Gossypium genomes and the evolution of spinnable cotton fibres

Andrew H. Paterson, +77 more
- 20 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that an abrupt five- to sixfold ploidy increase approximately 60 million years (Myr) ago, and allopolyploidy reuniting divergent Gossypium genomes approximately 1–2 Myr ago, conferred about 30–36-fold duplication of ancestral angiosperm genes in elite cottons, genetic complexity equalled only by Brassica among sequenced angiosperms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three crocodilian genomes reveal ancestral patterns of evolution among archosaurs

Richard E. Green, +60 more
- 12 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: An exceptionally slow rate of genome evolution within crocodilians at all levels is observed, consistent with a single underlying cause of a reduced rate of evolutionary change rather than intrinsic differences in base repair machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Empirical comparison of ab initio repeat finding programs

TL;DR: Side-by-side evaluations of six of the most widely used ab initio repeat finding programs reveal profound differences in the utility with some identifying virtually their entire substrate as repetitive, others making reasonable estimates of repetition, and some missing almost all repeats.
