Did doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI) of mtDNA originate as a cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) system?

Sophie Breton et al.

Summary: Animal and plant species exhibit a wide range of sexual systems, with genetic material in mitochondrial genome playing a crucial role. In some hermaphroditic plants, sex is determined by an interaction between mitochondrial cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) genes and nuclear restorer genes. A potential case of CMS in animals is proposed, suggesting that mitochondrial-nuclear sex-determination systems may exist beyond plants. Further exploration of the similarities between doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI) and CMS is recommended.

ARAMIS: From systematic errors of NGS long reads to accurate assemblies

E. Sacristan-Horcajada et al.

Summary: Researchers have developed a NGS long-reads indels correction pipeline called ARAMIS, which combines multiple correction software in one step using accurate short reads to address insertions and deletions errors in long-read sequencing. The study found systematic sequencing errors in PacBio sequences affecting homopolymeric regions, and that the type of indel errors introduced during PacBio sequencing are related to the GC content of the organism.
