The success of common wheat as a global staple crop was largely attributed to its genomic
diversity and redundancy due to the merge of different genomes, giving rise to the major …

Dwarfing rootstocks have transformed the production of cultivated apples; however, the
genetic basis of rootstock-induced dwarfing remains largely unclear. We have assembled …

Polyploidization, both ancient and recent, is frequent among plants. A “two-step theory" was
proposed to explain the meso-triplication of the Brassica “A" genome: Brassica rapa. By …

Background As one of the largest transcription factor families in plants, the
APETALA2/Ethylene-Responsive Factor (AP2/ERF) superfamily is involved in various …

Recent advances in plant genomics and molecular biology have revolutionized our
understanding of plant genetics, providing new opportunities for more efficient and …

Millions of species are currently being sequenced, and their genomes are being compared.
Many of them have more complex genomes than model systems and raise novel challenges …

Abstract SyMAP (Synteny Mapping and Analysis Program) was originally developed to
compute synteny blocks between a sequenced genome and a FPC map, and has been …

In addition to the genomes of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and poplar (Populus
trichocarpa), two near-complete rosid genome sequences, grape (Vitis vinifera) and papaya …

Mikania micrantha is one of the top 100 worst invasive species that can cause serious
damage to natural ecosystems and substantial economic losses. Here, we present its 1.79 …

Musa acuminata is a main wild contributor to banana cultivars. Here, we reported a
haplotype-resolved and telomere-to-telomere reference genome of M. acuminata by …
