Cohort-HMM marker recruitment with per-OG orthology QC for phylogenomic supermatrices

OrthoFinder's all-vs-all DIAMOND step systematically misses single-copy orthogroups (SC OGs) at deep taxonomic divergence: a marker recovered cleanly within a tightly defined cohort is dropped when the same marker is searched against phylum-broad metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) sets, because pairwise sequence similarity falls below DIAMOND's detection threshold even when the underlying ortholog is present. The result is biased dropout - supermatrices that retain genomes near the cohort but...

Whole-genome duplication shaped cell-type evolution in the vertebrate brain

Abstract The complex brains of vertebrates have more cell types than those of their closest relatives. Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) occurred during early vertebrate evolution1, but it is unclear whether the duplicated genes (ohnologues) facilitated cell-type evolution. Here using brain single-cell transcriptomes from five chordates—human2, mouse3, lizard4, lamprey5 and amphioxus—we report that many cell-type families with conserved core transcription factors in vertebrates do not show...

Gene ancestries reveal diverse microbial associations during eukaryogenesis

Abstract The origin of eukaryotes remains a central enigma in biology1. Continuing debates agree on the pivotal role of a symbiosis between an alphaproteobacterium and an Asgard archaeon2,3. However, the nature, timing and contributions of other potential bacterial partners4,5,6 and the role of interactions with viruses7,8,9 remain contentious.
