Extremely grateful to Ghent University for providing long- term funding for our research on polyploidy and whole genome duplication.

Supporting ground-breaking and impactful research that will make a profound difference to society. That is the guiding principle of the Methusalem programme.

Another result of a wonderful collaboration!

Abstract. Polyploidy has been hypothesized to be both an evolutionary dead-end and a source for evolutionary innovation and species diversification. Although po

We assembled one of the most contiguous genomes for the common goldfish and unveiled the genetic architecture of many well-known and anatomically interesting traits, owing to the sequencing of a large collection of goldfish varieties. The datasets that we have generated for candidate genes or genomi...

The tomato russet mite, Aculops lycopersici, is among the smallest animals on earth. It is a worldwide pest on tomato and can potently suppress the host's natural resistance. We sequenced its genome, the first of an eriophyoid, and explored whether there are genomic features associated with the mite...

Azaleas are one of the most diverse ornamental plants and have cultural and economic importance. Here, the authors report a chromosome-scale genome assembly for the primary ancestor of the azalea cultivar Rhododendro simsi and identify transcription factors that may function in flower coloration at....
