Abstract Background The sharp increase of plant genome and transcriptome data provide valuable resources to investigate evolutionary consequences gene duplication in a range taxa, unravel common principles underlying duplicate retention. Results We survey 141 sequenced genomes elucidate duplication, processes central the evolution biodiversity. develop pipeline named DupGen_finder identify different modes plants. Genes derived from whole-genome, tandem, proximal, transposed, or dispersed differ abundance, selection pressure, expression divergence, conversion rate among genomes. number WGD-derived genes decreases exponentially with increasing age events—transposed duplication- duplication-derived declined parallel. In contrast, frequency tandem proximal duplications showed no significant decrease over time, providing continuous supply variants available for adaptation continuously changing environments. Moreover, duplicates experienced stronger selective pressure than formed by other evolved toward biased functional roles involved self-defense. pairs peaking shortly after polyploidization. To platform accessing duplicated plants, we constructed Plant Duplicate Gene Database. Conclusions comprehensive landscape across kingdom comparing genomes, which provides solid foundation further investigation dynamic genes.

DNA methylation is an important feature of plant epigenomes, involved in the formation heterochromatin and affecting gene expression. Extensive variation patterns within a species has been uncovered from studies natural variation. However, extent to which varies between flowering still unclear. To understand genomic patterning across species, we compared single base resolution methylomes 34 diverse angiosperm species.By analyzing whole-genome bisulfite sequencing data phylogenetic context, it becomes clear that there extensive throughout angiosperms body methylation, euchromatic silencing transposons repeats, as well heterochromatic transposons. The Brassicaceae have reduced CHG levels also or loss CG methylation. Poaceae are characterized by lack reduction CHH enrichment genic regions. Furthermore, low observed number especially clonally propagated species.These results reveal show broadly reflection evolutionary life histories species.

Here, we report comprehensive analysis of the structural functional composition microbiome. We use both amplicon deep shotgun metagenomic sequencing bulk soil samples collected across distinct biogeographical regions from six continents. Predominant taxa include Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria Bacteroidetes. The core comprises Pseudomonas, Agrobacterium, Cupriavidus, Bradyrhizobium, Rhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Burkholderia, Cellvibrio, Sphingomonas, Variovorax Paraburkholderia, some which are potential plant beneficial microbes. also identify over-represented microbial traits mediating plant-microbe microbe-microbe interactions, nutrition acquisition promotion rhizosphere. results provide valuable information guide isolation culturing and, potentially, harness power improve production

We have witnessed an explosion in our understanding of the evolution and structure plant genomes recent years. Here, we highlight three important emergent realizations: (1) that evolutionary history all contains multiple, cyclical episodes whole-genome doubling were followed by myriad fractionation processes; (2) vast majority variation genome size reflects dynamics proliferation loss lineage-specific transposable elements; (3) various classes small RNAs help shape genomic architecture function. illustrate ways which these organism-level molecular genetic processes can be used for crop improvement.
