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
50 Million Years of Genomic Stasis in Endosymbiotic Bacteria
Ivica Tamas,Lisa Klasson,Björn Canbäck,A. Kristina Näslund,Ann Sofie Eriksson,Jennifer J. Wernegreen,Jonas P. Sandström,Nancy A. Moran,Siv G. E. Andersson +8 more
TL;DR: Comparison of two fully sequenced genomes of Buchnera aphidicola reveals the most extreme genome stability to date: no chromosome rearrangements or gene acquisitions have occurred in the past 50 to 70 million years, despite substantial sequence evolution and the inactivation and loss of individual genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mosaic genome structure of the Wolbachia wRi strain infecting Drosophila simulans.
Lisa Klasson,Joakim Westberg,Panagiotis Sapountzis,Kristina Näslund,Ylva Lutnaes,Alistair C. Darby,Zoe Veneti,Lanming Chen,Henk R. Braig,Roger A. Garrett,Kostas Bourtzis,Siv G. E. Andersson +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the transmission dynamics of Wolbachia and the opportunity for coinfections have created a freely recombining intracellular bacterial community with mosaic genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome Evolution of Wolbachia Strain wPip from the Culex pipiens Group
Lisa Klasson,Thomas Walker,Mohammed Sebaihia,Mandy Sanders,Michael A. Quail,Angela Lord,Susanne Sanders,Julie Earl,Scott Leslie O'Neill,Nicholas R. Thomson,Steven P. Sinkins,Julian Parkhill +11 more
TL;DR: The wPip genome underlines the considerable evolutionary flexibility of Wolbachia, providing clear evidence for the rapid evolution of ANK-encoding genes and of prophage regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Horizontal gene transfer between Wolbachia and the mosquito Aedes aegypti
TL;DR: The data support the argument that HGT between Wolbachia endosymbiotic bacteria and their hosts has produced evolutionary innovation.
