Charles has written a nice blog post on our new tool lab.dessimoz.org/blog/2024/08/3…

One fun result I wish to highlight: with EdgeHOG, we can date gene adjacencies. Some parts of genomes—e.g. histone clusters—have been conserved for over 1 billion years! Other parts undergo rapid rearrangements, such as sexual chromosomes. Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

An important query that only ropebwt3 supports is to retrieve all distinct haplotypes similar but not necessaily identical to a query sequence. Useful for investigating the haplotype diversity of complex events.

In a new preprint, Ragnar Groot Koerkamp and I led the derivation of a new lower bound, g’ (red), on k-mer sampling scheme density: - our bound appears to be tight for k ≡ 1 (mod w). - existing schemes are nearly optimal! - mod-minimizers are optimal for large sigma for k ≡ 1 (mod w)
