The repertoire of short tandem repeats across the tree of life.

Genome Biol. 2025 Dec 12;26(1):425. doi:10.1186/s13059-025-03893-z

“The average STR density was 1.51 STR bp per kB” “Plasmodium falciparum shows the highest STR genomic density (109 bp/kB)” “19,645 viruses and 5 bacteria lacked STRs altogether” “the bacterial kingdom Fusobacteriati is depleted of STRs” “for prokaryotic genomes, we notice that one bp repeat unit STRs are highly depleted. Notably, trinucleotide and hexanucleotide tandem repeats are also enriched in most prokaryotic phyla” “bacterial and archaeal genomes are, on average, not more repetitive than expected by chance in contrast to eukaryotic and viral genomes.”

Limited growth and recruitment of Oikopleura dioica (Tunicata: Appendicularia) in the Jiaozhou Bay, China

J. Ocean. Limnol. (2025). doi: 10.1007/s00343-025-503

_O. dioica was mostly found from June to December 2011. Salinity varied between ~31 and ~28, and temperature between ~25 and ~5. Chlorophyl peaked in both winter and summer, but cyanobacteria only peaked in summer. Wild animals never reached the size of lab animals during the whole year.

STAR Protoc. 2025 Sep 19;6(3):103994. doi:10.1016/j.xpro.2025.103994

Protocol for the isolation, culture, and transfection of squid primary cells

Fibroblast-like cells migrate out of optic lobe, eye or gill explants after trypsin digestion, and can be transfected, but no cell division was observed. Insulin-transferrin-selenium (ITS-G), FGF and EGF are present in the cell culture medium.

“We built a behavioral atlas of the planktonic tunicate Oikopleura dioica across its life cyclefrom larval to adult stages using high-throughput tracking and unsupervised analysis.”

Like in ascidians, the classical Ras protein is lost but was probably substituted by other related Ras proteins

Tempo and Mode of Genome Evolution in the Budding Yeast Subphylum.

Survey of 45 metabolic traits over 400 million years of yeast evolutionary history suggests that lineages evolved by gene loss from a generalist ancestor. “We estimate the origin of the subphylum between 317 and 523 (95% credibility interval; posterior mean date: 404) million years ago (mya); the origin of the CUG-Ser1 clade, which contains the major opportunistic pathogen C. albicans, between 178 and 248 (210) mya, the origin of the whole-genome duplication (WGD) clade between 82 and 105 (93) mya, and the divergence of S. cerevisiae and C. albicans from their sister species (Saccharomyces paradoxus and Candida dubliniensis) between 4.0 and 5.8 (4.9) mya and 5.0 and 14.0 (8.7) mya, respectively”

Multispecies pangenomes reveal a pervasive influence of population size on structural variation.

“We find rapid evolution of genome architecture, including ~100-megabase decreases in genome size driven by shifts in complex satellite landscapes”

Improving Phylogenies Based on Average Nucleotide Identity, Incorporating Saturation Correction and Nonparametric Bootstrap Support.

Syst Biol. 2022 Feb 10;71(2):396-409. doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab060

“The distance (abbreviated Total Average Nucleotide Identity, or tANI) was calculated by using the formula: tANI -ln(AFANI). The natural log added to this calculation counteracts saturation for low AFANI values” Mostly tested on bacteria but also briefly on primates and yeasts

Haplotype-resolved genomes provide insights into the origins and functional significance of genome diversity in bivalves.

“contiguous shell/core gene block[s …] consisted of singletons (80.4% in B. belcheri, 74.9% in B. floridae) or contained fewer than 5 genes (99.0% in B. belcheri, 99.1% in B. floridae).” “in the B. belcheri reference genome [and] 20 of the analysed resequenced samples [we found] the integrated genome of a herpes-like virus spanning 149,856 bp in length. […] Overall, BelcheriHV-1 was 24 × less impacted by nucleotide variations than the B. belcheri genome, with an average of one SNP per 5,958 nt, vs one SNP per 174 nt, respectively.” “[the dispensable genes] found in hemizygosity in only one of the two parental genotypes […] were absent in 40% of the offspring (expected 50%) and those found in hemizygosity in both parental genomes […] were absent in 19% of the offspring (expected 25%).”
