Nojiri, @susaki-lab.bsky.social et al. compared the genomes of the immortal Hydra vulgaris and the aging Hydra oligactis. Results suggest that extended lifespan may reflect differences in how core biological processes are organized.
Are you interested in learning how genomes of weird fungi and protists evolve and are you looking for an exciting PhD opportunity? Jolien van Hooff and I are looking for an enthusiasic PhD candidate at Wageningen University: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p... #TEworldwide #Fungi #Protists #Genome

A research team has published their findings in Horticulture Research.The researchers constructed a chromosome-level, haplotype-resolved female genome assembly of Vernicia montana, a dioecious woody oilseed tree native to China.

The southern corn rootworm is a leaf beetle native to N. America that infests >50 crops. Coates et al. generated a chromosome-level reference assembly for a male, including the first assembled supernumerary B chromosome for a rootworm.
@michid73.bsky.social et al. show that Norwegian kveik forms a distinct and early branch among European brewing yeasts, originating from ancestral populations 4,000 to 8,000 years ago.
Diepeveen, Bellés & @mikkelschierup.bsky.social analysed T2T primate genomes to show that several X chr. gene families evolve under strong positive selection, whereas Y chr. families predominantly show purifying selection.
First we build the tools,
then they build us.

RESEARCH PAPER: Nuclear type I myosins actively support nucleolar and nuclear structure and function
By Peng et al. and Brian Freeman

Laizé, @joao-pedro-marques.bsky.social @gubrins.bsky.social et al. tested whether nuclear oxidative phosphorylation genes preferentially co-introgress with mitochondrial DNA, allowing for the mitigation of incompatibilities.
Echeverry-Pérez et al. show that tick endosymbionts form a sister group to opportunistic lineages, consistent with repeated host shifts during their evolutionary history.
