      We describe an emerging initiative - the ‘Functional Annotation of All Salmonid Genomes’ (FAASG), which will leverage the extensive trait diversity that has evolved since a whole genome duplication event in the salmonid ...
    • Genome assembly, structural variants, and genetic differentiation between lake whitefish young species pairs (Coregonus sp.) with long and short reads 

      Mérot, Claire; Stenløkk, Kristina Severine Rudskjær; Venney, Clare; Laporte, Martin; Moser, Michel; Normandeau, Eric; Arnyasi, Mariann; Kent, Matthew Peter; Rougeux, Clément; Flynn, Jullien; Lien, Sigbjørn; Bernatchez, Louis (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Nascent pairs of ecologically differentiated species offer an opportunity to get a better glimpse at the genetic architecture of speciation. Of particular interest is our recent ability to consider a wider range of genomic ...
    • The structural variation landscape in 492 Atlantic salmon genomes 

      Bertolotti, Alicia C.; Layer, Ryan M.; Gundappa, Manu Kumar; Gallagher, Michael D.; Pehlivanoglu, Ege; Nome, Torfinn; Robledo, Diego; Kent, Matthew Peter; Røsæg, Line Lieblein; Holen, Matilde Mengkrog; Mulugeta, Teshome Dagne; Ashton, Thomas J.; Hindar, Kjetil; Sægrov, Harald; Florø-Larsen, Bjørn; Erkinaro, Jaakko; Primmer, Craig R.; Bernatchez, Louis; Martin, Samuel A.M.; Johnston, Ian A.; Sandve, Simen Rød; Lien, Sigbjørn; Macqueen, Daniel J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Structural variants (SVs) are a major source of genetic and phenotypic variation, but remain challenging to accurately type and are hence poorly characterized in most species. We present an approach for reliable SV discovery ...
