Dense sampling of bird diversity increases power of comparative genomics
(Nature Research, 2020)Whole-genome sequencing projects are increasingly populating the tree of life and characterizing biodiversity1,2,3,4. Sparse taxon sampling has previously been proposed to confound phylogenetic inference5, and captures ... -
Genetic diversity and phylogeny of South African Meloidogyne populations using genotyping by sequencing
(Nature, 2018)Meloidogyne species cause great crop losses worldwide. Although genetic host plant resistance is an effective control strategy to minimize damage caused by Meloidogyne, some resistant genes are ineffective against virulent ... -
What can a comparative genomics approach tell us about the pathogenicity of mtDNA mutations in human populations?
(Wiley, 2019)Mitochondrial disorders are heterogeneous, showing variable presentation and penetrance. Over the last three decades, our ability to recognize mitochondrial patients and diagnose these mutations, linking genotype to ...
