Assembly of Silphium interspecific hybrid genomes opens the genus to phylogenomics, ecogenomics, and molecular breeding

Wild perennial plants can be domesticated to make agriculture more diverse and resilient, but many have large genomes that have been recalcitrant to analysis. Here, we report phased genome assemblies for Silphium integrifolium Michx. and S. perfoliatum L., two species native to North America under domestication, and de...
