Single-celled protists in the guts of animals thrive without mitochondria, study finds
Almost all eukaryotic organisms, from plants and animals to fungi, can't survive without mitochondria, which generate chemical energy using oxygen.Science X (Phys.org)
PhylteR: efficient identification of outlier sequences in phylogenomic datasets.
PhylteR can automatically identify sequences likely to be hidden paralogs or horizontally transferred genes in very large datasets. Removing those sequences therefore reduces noise in downstream analyses.
Available as an R package on CRAN or as docker and singularity images.

Matreex: compact and interactive visualisation of large gene families provides evidence for loss of intraflagellar transport in a myxozoan
Studying gene family evolution strongly benefits from insightful visualisations. However, the ever-growing number of sequenced genomes is leading to increasingly larger gene families, which challenges existing gene tree visualisations.bioRxiv
