How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

The composition of a species could change with demographic turnovers, where dominant populations quickly expanded and replaced others. However, whether such events have a genetic basis remains to be investigated. Previous studies showed that Arabidopsis thaliana experienced a significant demographic turnover, where 'non-relicts' replaced 'relicts'...
Article
Domestication is the long and complex process underlying the evolution of crops, in which artificial directional selection transformed wild progenitors into the desired form, affecting genomic variation and leaving traces of selection at targeted loci. However, whether genes controlling important domestication traits follow the same evolutionary pa...

Domestication and improvement are two crucial processes underlying the evolution of crops. Domestication transformed wild plants into a utilizable form for humans; improvement refined cultivars adapting to distinct environments and local preferences. Using whole-genome re-sequencing of Vigna radiata, we investigated the demographic history and comp...
Article
Full-text available
Balancing selection is frequently invoked as a mechanism that maintains variation within and across populations. However, there are few examples of balancing selection operating on loci underpinning complex traits, which frequently display high levels of variation. We investigated mechanisms that may maintain variation in a focal polymorphism—leaf...

Glucosinolates are defense-related secondary metabolites found in Brassicaceae. When Brassicaceae come under attack, glucosinolates are hydrolyzed into different forms of glucosinolate hydrolysis products (GHPs). Among the GHPs, isothiocyanates are the most comprehensively characterized defensive compounds, whereas the functional study of nitriles,...
