Annual and perennial species occur in many plant families. Annual plants and some perennials are monocarpic (flowering once in their life cycle), characterized by a massive flowering and typically produce many seeds before the whole plant senesces. By contrast, most perennials live for many years, show delayed reproduction, and are…

Abstract Despite the tremendous increase in omics data generated by modern sequencing technologies, their analysis can be tricky and often requires substantial expertise in bioinformatics. To address this concern, we have developed a user-friendly pipeline to analyze (cancer) genomic data that takes in raw sequencing data (FASTQ format) as input…

converting Bam to fastq while removing clipping(hard/soft clip bases) 0 Hello, I want to do some analysis and my raw data is paired-end reads fastq files. So far: I used BWA mem to convert them to Sam file then used samtools to convert to BAM file. My next step is…

Significance Putatively ancient asexual species pose a challenge to theory because they appear to escape the predicted negative long-term consequences of asexuality. Although long-term asexuality is difficult to demonstrate, specific signatures of haplotype divergence, called the “Meselson effect,” are regarded as strong support for long-term asexuality. Here, we provide evidence…

INTRODUCTION Large-scale annual migrations occur in an extraordinary range of animals, from insects to the great whales. While the driving mechanisms of these migrations are varied and sometimes poorly understood, they often represent a way of optimizing conditions for breeding and adult fitness when these are in conflict. Often, populations…
