    The genomics of selection in dogs and the parallel evolution between dogs and humans

    The genetic bases of demographic changes and artificial selection underlying domestication are of great interest in evolutionary biology. Here we perform whole-genome sequencing of multiple grey wolves, Chines...

    TDP-43 facilitates milk lipid secretion by post-transcriptional regulation of Btn1a1 and Xdh

    Milk lipid secretion is a critical process for the delivery of nutrition and energy from parent to offspring. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is less clear. Here we report that TDP-43, a RNA-bindin...

    Genomic regions under selection in the feralization of the dingoes

    Dingoes are wild canids living in Australia, originating from domestic dogs. They have lived isolated from both the wild and the domestic ancestor, making them a unique model for studying feralization. Here, w...

    Population sequencing enhances understanding of tea plant evolution

    Tea is an economically important plant characterized by a large genome, high heterozygosity, and high species diversity. In this study, we assemble a 3.26-Gb high-quality chromosome-scale genome for the ‘Longj...
