Talk details for upcoming PAG conference: Jonathan Wright, Bioinformatician. Talk title: High-quality genome assemblies to explore genetic variation in wheat. Second speaker: Graham Etherington, Senior Computational Biologist. Talk title: Structural variant discovery in the Watkins Landrace Wheat Collection using ultra-long Nanopore reads

Today at #PAG32, Jonathan and Graham are presenting their work during the '#wheat #genomics to breeding' session on using #genomeassemblies and ultra-long #Nanopore reads to identify key variations in wheat.

Newly assembled pocket gopher genomes can facilitate conservation management of biodiversity We used genome sequencing, population genetic, and phylogenetic techniques to identify pocket gopher subspecific boundaries in Texas. Using these methods,

🧪 Last week of 2024, new paper alert! 🚨 Thanks to an amazing collaboration with the #DavidRay lab, we now have new #genomeassemblies tackling the big question: How many pocket gophers are there in Texas? 🐾 🧬
