Cochetel & Cantu publish a new MBE Review on plant pangenomes, outlining major paradigms from gene-based catalogs to haplotype-resolved graphs, core and variable compartments, and how graph-based frameworks enable analyses that are difficult with single linear references.

Going through Samuel Horsfield's presentation on pangenome graphs in comparative genomics, courtesy of EMBL.

Fascinating tidbit on history of alignment based sequence graph - it goes all the way back to 1989 (Hein), era of Apple IIs and IBM PS/2s. Great talk!

I got a shoutout during an EMBL lecture presentation on indexing pangenomes. I have to admit, it made my day 😄

The whole series is fantastic so far, the particular talk on indexing can be found below with slides and video:
