Independent evolution of flavour and parthenocarpy in fig, one of the earliest domesticated fruit trees

Domestication often modifies multiple traits in concert, but whether fruit quality and reproductive mode share a genetic basis in perennial crops has not been tested at multi-omics resolution. In fig (Ficus carica), one of the earliest domesticated fruit trees and a crop with archaeobotanical evidence of cultivation ov...

Haplotype-Phased Chromosome-Scale Genome Assemblies of Satsuma mandarin Uncover Structural and Transcriptional Divergence Between Parental Haplotypes and Structural Variations in Mutant Lineages.

Citrus, a widely cultivated Rutaceae crop, comprises numerous varieties, among which Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu Marc.) is the most widely cultivated in Japan. In this study, a high-quality, chromosome-scale, haplotype-phased genome assembly of Satsuma mandarin ("Miyagawa wase") was generated using PacBio HiFi sequ...

Chromosome-scale genome assembly and genomic prediction of essential oil compounds in Atractylodes lancea for genomics-assisted breeding

The efficacy of genomic selection for improving essential oil compound levels in A. lancea provides a foundation for genome-assisted breeding of medicinal plants with long breeding cycles and demonstrates the efficacy of genomic heritability for improving essential oil compound levels.
