The Nigella damascena genome provides insights into transposable element-driven genomic gigantism and trait evolution

Abstract Giant genomes, generally dominated by transposable elements (TEs), have evolved repeatedly in angiosperms. The role of TEs in the evolution of giant genomes, however, remains largely unclear. Here, by ancestral genome size reconstruction, whole-genome sequencing, and comparative genomic and transcriptomic analyses, we reveal the processes, drivers, and consequences of genomic gigantism in the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae).

Evolution of short trichomes and long hairs on Nigella petals through co-option of bHLH and non-MIXTA MYB genes - Nature Communications

By Xu Yao, Hong Liao, Xiaofeng Yin, Jie Cheng, Xuan Li, Hongzhi Kong, Chunxi Peng, Sentao Lyu
| Nature Verified
Abstract Conical cells (CCs), trichomes, and hairs are all protrusive epidermal cells of plants, yet the differences and relationships among them remain largely unclear. Here, we show that the unicellular long hairs (LHs) and short trichomes (STs) on Nigella damascena petals differ from CCs in shape, length, number, distribution pattern, relative nuclear size, ploidy level, developmental process, and molecular basis.
