This article describes the complete chloroplast genome of . The plastome was 114,795 bp in length, containing a large single copy region (66,103 bp) and a small single copy region (9438 bp), separated by two inverted repeat regions (19,627 bp). The genome lost all genes and contained 116 genes, including 68 protein-coding genes, 40 genes, and eight genes. The GC content was 33.3%, 12 genes all contained an intron, gene contained two introns while was a transpliced gene. Phylogenetic analysis using 61 concatenated protein-coding genes suggests that with the rest of other gnetophytes were sister to or nested within all conifers.

Recent advancements in viral metagenomics and single-virus genomics have improved our ability to obtain the draft genomes of environmental viruses. However, these methods can introduce virus sequence contaminations into viral genomes when short, fragmented partial sequences are present in the assembled contigs. These contaminations can lead to incorrect analyses; however, practical detection tools are lacking.

Metagenotyping of metagenomic data has recently attracted increasing attention as it resolves intraspecies diversity by identifying single nucleotide variants. Furthermore, gene copy number analysis within species provides a deeper understanding of metabolic functions in microbial communities. However, a platform for examining metagenotyping results based on relevant grouping data is lacking.

Background: Regeneration is the replacement of lost or damaged tissue with a functional copy. In axolotls and zebrafish, regeneration involves stem cells produced by de-differentiation. These cells form a growth zone which expresses developmental patterning genes at its apex.

Characterising functional diversity is a vital element to understanding a species' immune function, yet many immunogenetic studies in non-model organisms tend to focus on only one or two gene families such as the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) or toll-like receptors (TLR). Another interesting component of the eukaryotic innate immune system is the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). The two major groups of mammalian AMPs are cathelicidins and defensins, with the former having undergone species-specific expansions in marsupials.

Background: loss of function manifests across a broad spectrum of phenotypes, ranging from severe prenatal onset to asymptomatic cases. Bilateral periventricular nodular heterotopia (BPNH) consistently occurs in affected individuals. This retrospective study involving French patients with BPNH evaluates the prevalence of gene dosage anomalies and investigates genotype-phenotype correlations in a large cohort of French patients with BPNH.
