The grapevine genome sequence suggests ancestral hexaploidization in major angiosperm phyla
- O. Jaillon, J. Aury, +53 authors P. Wincker
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 26 August 2007
The analysis of the first plant genomes provided unexpected evidence for genome duplication events in species that had previously been considered as true diploids on the basis of their genetics.… Expand
The complete genome sequence of the lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis IL1403.
- A. Bolotin, P. Wincker, +5 authors A. Sorokin
- Biology, Medicine
- Genome research
- 1 May 2001
Lactococcus lactis is a nonpathogenic AT-rich gram-positive bacterium closely related to the genus Streptococcus and is the most commonly used cheese starter. It is also the best-characterized lactic… Expand
Structure and function of the global ocean microbiome
- S. Sunagawa, Luis Pedro Coelho, +47 authors P. Bork
- Biology, Medicine

Microbes are dominant drivers of biogeochemical processes, yet drawing a global picture of functional diversity, microbial community structure, and their ecological determinants remains a grand… Expand
Genome duplication in the teleost fish Tetraodon nigroviridis reveals the early vertebrate proto-karyotype
- O. Jaillon, J. Aury, +58 authors H. R. Crollius
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 21 October 2004
Tetraodon nigroviridis is a freshwater puffer fish with the smallest known vertebrate genome. Here, we report a draft genome sequence with long-range linkage and substantial anchoring to the 21… Expand
The Genome Sequence of the Malaria Mosquito Anopheles gambiae
- R. Holt, G. Subramanian, +120 authors S. Hoffman
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 4 October 2002
Anopheles gambiae is the principal vector of malaria, a disease that afflicts more than 500 million people and causes more than 1 million deaths each year. Tenfold shotgun sequence coverage was… Expand
The rainbow trout genome provides novel insights into evolution after whole-genome duplication in vertebrates
- C. Berthelot, F. Brunet, +27 authors Yann Guiguen
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature communications
- 22 April 2014
Vertebrate evolution has been shaped by several rounds of whole-genome duplications (WGDs) that are often suggested to be associated with adaptive radiations and evolutionary innovations. Due to an… Expand
The banana (Musa acuminata) genome and the evolution of monocotyledonous plants

Bananas (Musa spp.), including dessert and cooking types, are giant perennial monocotyledonous herbs of the order Zingiberales, a sister group to the well-studied Poales, which include cereals.… Expand
Global trends of whole-genome duplications revealed by the ciliate Paramecium tetraurelia
- Jean-Marc Aury, O. Jaillon, +40 authors P. Wincker
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 9 November 2006
The duplication of entire genomes has long been recognized as having great potential for evolutionary novelties, but the mechanisms underlying their resolution through gene loss are poorly… Expand
Eukaryotic plankton diversity in the sunlit ocean
- C. de Vargas, S. Audic, +51 authors E. Karsenti
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 22 May 2015
Marine plankton support global biological and geochemical processes. Surveys of their biodiversity have hitherto been geographically restricted and have not accounted for the full range of plankton… Expand
