We’ve added a few new analyses. First off, we show that, while gene presence absence variation (PAV) scales with evolutionary distance in both plants and animals, the base level and rate of accrual are both twice as high in plants.
With help of international colleagues at @jgi.doe.gov, @oregonstate.edu, and @stockholm-uni.bsky.social, we are relasing new parameters for Tiberius.

pangenome 'expansion' curves for cotton and soybean
Determining presence-absence variation (PAV) across reference genomes is a major goal of pangenome analysis. It turns out that A LOT of gene PAV is due to methodological artifacts.
We explore the causes of this in soybean and cotton datasets in our recent preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
