Our paper was published today in Nature Biotech! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Tandem Repeat Genotyping Tool (TRGT) is a new method for genotyping tandem repeats in PacBio HiFi long reads. We used some nice algorithmic strategies to improve genotyping accuracy. 🖥️ 🧬

Characterization and visualization of tandem repeats at genome scale - Nature Biotechnology

A set of tools maps tandem repeats across complete genomes.

Excited to share a new pre-print from our lab that demonstrates surprisingly repeatable genome evolution in replicated Xiphophorus hybrid populations! Led by former postdoc Quinn Langdon with substantial contributions from Jeff Groh from @gcbias.bsky.socialwww.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Just in time for the holidays, Jeff Groh cracks the story of an ancient, balanced polymorphism for heterodichogamy (male vs female flower order) in walnuts & pecans www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Distinct ancient structural polymorphisms control heterodichogamy in walnuts and hickories
