A New Catalog of Structural Variants in 1,301 A. thaliana Lines from Africa, Eurasia, and North America Reveals a Signature of Balancing Selection at Defense Response Genes

Mehmet Goektay et al.

Summary: This study identified a large number of indels and structural variants in Arabidopsis thaliana natural accessions, showing strong purifying selection in genes, especially in defense-related genes. The results suggest the presence of a core genome for basic cellular processes and a flexible genome containing genes important for spatial or temporal selection.

Mutation load at a mimicry supergene sheds new light on the evolution of inversion polymorphisms

Paul Jay et al.

Summary: Chromosomal inversions are common in genomes and can coordinate complex phenotypes, but they accumulate harmful mutations which lead to frequency-dependent selection and hinder their replacement of ancestral chromosome arrangements. This study suggests that complex polymorphisms may evolve due to the intrinsic tendency of chromosomal rearrangements to carry recessive harmful mutations.

Deleterious mutation accumulation and the long-term fate of chromosomal inversions

Emma L. Berdan et al.

Summary: Chromosomal inversions, segments of chromosomes that are flipped relative to normal orientation, can facilitate evolutionary processes like adaptation and speciation. Inverted regions with reduced recombination allow for beneficial allele combinations, influencing the evolution of the allelic content inside them. Accumulation of deleterious mutations in inverted regions can lead to divergence between arrangements and offer a selective advantage for individuals with heterozygous arrangements, maintaining inversion polymorphism in the population.

Pan-genome analysis of 33 genetically diverse rice accessions reveals hidden genomic variations

Peng Qin et al.

Summary: The study assembled high-quality genomes of genetically diverse rice accessions, discovering a large number of structural variations and gene copy number variations. By using a graph-based genome, the research explored the impact of these variations on rice domestication and environmental adaptation.
