TL;DR: The genome and transcriptome data generated for a Mesoamerican genotype represent a counterpart to the genomic resources already available for the Andean gene pool, and will allow the genetic dissection of the characters involved in the domestication and adaptation of the crop, and their further implementation in breeding strategies.

TL;DR: The assembled draft genome of O. europaea will provide a valuable resource for the study of the evolution and domestication processes of this important tree, and allow determination of the genetic bases of key phenotypic traits.

TL;DR: The sequence and annotation of the turbot genome is presented, which represents a milestone for both boosting breeding programmes and ascertaining the origin and diversification of flatfish.

TL;DR: This is the first study to report the widespread occurrence of gene presence-absence variation at a whole-genome scale in the animal kingdom and indicates dispensable genes usually belong to young and recently expanded gene families enriched in survival functions, which might be the key to explain the resilience and invasiveness of this species.

TL;DR: In sweet almond cultivars, highly methylated TE insertions surround a gene involved in the biosynthesis of amygdalin, whose reduced expression has been correlated with the sweet almond phenotype, suggesting a key role of TEs in the recent history and diversification of almond and its close relative peach.
