Publishing in Science, Girish and colleagues achieve chromosome-level genome editing to reveal a requirement for aneuploidy in breast and melanoma cancers. Authors developed and leveraged ReDACT (restoring disomy in aneuploid cells using CRISPR targeting) to generate isogenic models of aneuploidy and demonstrate that some cancers are addicted to increased copy number of specific chromosome arms.

Chromosome-level genome assembly, annotation, and population genomic resource of argali (Ovis ammon).

Sci Data

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Ecological Safety and Sustainable Development in Arid Lands, Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Urumqi, 830011, China.

Argali stands as the largest species among wild sheep in Central and East Asia, with a concerning rate of decline estimated at 30%. The intraspecific taxonomy of argali remains contentious due to limited genomic data and unclear geographic separation. In this study, we constructed a chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation for the Tibetan argali (O.

Chromosome-scale genome assembly of three-spotted seahorse (Hippocampus trimaculatus) with a unique karyotype.

Sci Data

January 2025

Laboratory of Aquatic Genomics, College of Life Sciences and Oceanography, Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, 518057, China.

Three-spotted seahorse (Hippocampi trimaculata) is a unique fish with important economic and medicinal values, and its total chromosome number is potentially quite different from other seahorse species. Herein, we constructed a chromosome-level genome assembly for this special seahorse by integration of MGI short-read, PacBio HiFi long-read and Hi-C sequencing techniques. A 416.

Stinging nettles () have a long history of association with human civilization, having been used as a source of textile fibers, food and medicine. Here, we present a chromosome-level, phased genome assembly for a diploid female clone of from Romania. Using a combination of PacBio HiFi, Oxford Nanopore, and Illumina sequencing, as well as Hi-C long-range interaction data (using a novel Hi-C protocol presented here), we assembled two haplotypes of 574.
