A 10X draft sequence of Podospora anserina genome shows highly dynamic evolution since its divergence from Neurospora crassa.

Comparative genome hybridization in 38 widely used laboratory strains of the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum detects previously unreported duplications and deletions in the Dictyostelium genome and highlights genetic variability between strains.

The complete Stenotrophomonas maltophilia genome sequence suggests that it can act as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance determinants.

The neuronally expressed transcription factor gene ewg is shown to be a major target of the RNA-binding protein ELAV. EWG restricts synaptic growth at neuromuscular junctionsby integrating multiple signal pathways.

Expression patterns of duplicate genes in the allopolyploid genome of cotton have arisen either as a consequence of genomic mergers or reflect long-term evolutionary changes such as duplicate gene neofunctionalization and subfunctionalization.
