Fungi are major ecological players in both terrestrial and aquatic environments by cycling
organic matter and channelling nutrients across trophic levels. High-throughput sequencing …

The global bio-diversity of fungi has been extensively investigated and their species number
has been estimated. Notably, the development of molecular phylogeny has revealed an …

Large-scale population genomic surveys are essential to explore the phenotypic diversity of
natural populations. Here we report the whole-genome sequencing and phenotyping of …

INTRODUCTION Genetic interactions occur when mutations in two or more genes combine
to generate an unexpected phenotype. An extreme negative or synthetic lethal genetic …

Whereas domestication of livestock, pets, and crops is well documented, it is still unclear to
what extent microbes associated with the production of food have also undergone human …

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with risk variants in the human genome and
dysbiosis of the gut microbiome, though unifying principles for these findings remain largely …

Many aspects of the historical relationships between populations in a species are reflected
in genetic data. Inferring these relationships from genetic data, however, remains a …

Abstract The 1000 Genomes Project aims to provide a deep characterisation of human
genome sequence variation as a foundation for investigating the relationship between …

• Premise of the study: Fungi are major decomposers in certain ecosystems and essential
associates of many organisms. They provide enzymes and drugs and serve as experimental …

Meaningful analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, which are produced
extensively by genetics and genomics studies, relies crucially on the accurate calling of …
