Comparative genomic analysis of C4 photosynthetic pathway evolution in grasses

Xiyin Wang, Udo Gowik, Haibao Tang, John E Bowers, Peter Westhoff, Andrew H Paterson Genome Biology 2009, 10:R68 (23 June 2009)

Comparison of the sorghum, maize and rice genomes shows that gene duplication and functional innovation is common to evolution of most but not all genes in the C4 photosynthetic pathway

High-throughput gene and SNP discovery in Eucalyptus grandis, an uncharacterized genome

Evandro Novaes, Derek R Drost, William G Farmerie, Georgios J Pappas, Dario Grattapaglia, Ronald R Sederoff, Matias Kirst BMC Genomics 2008, 9:312 (30 June 2008)

High-throughput pyrosequencing has provided the foundation for the annotation of the Eucalyptus grandis genome, and has delivered the first genome-wide assessments of nucleotide diversity and selection for a non-model plant species.
