The Physcomitrella patens chromosome-scale assembly reveals moss genome structure and evolution.

Daniel Lang, +58 more
- 01 Feb 2018 - 
TL;DR: More non-seed plant genomes are needed to unravel how plant genomes evolve, and to understand whether the P. patens genome structure is typical for mosses or bryophytes, it is found that 57% of the genome comprises transposable elements (TEs), some of which may be actively transposing during the life cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphology supports ­the setaphyte hypothesis: mosses plus liverworts form a natural group

TL;DR: It is pointed out that although bryophytes may or may not be monophyletic, mosses plus liverworts form a natural group, and this inference is neither new nor surprising as it has been the fundamental conclusion of morphological analyses for over 25 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic Diversity Evaluation of Populus trichocarpa Germplasm for Rare Variant Genetic Association Studies.

TL;DR: The importance of genomic diversity and the potential of rare defective genetic variants in explaining a significant portion of P. trichocarpa's phenotypic variability in association genetics are highlighted.
