In 2010, a major scientific milestone was achieved for tree fruit crops: publication of the first
draft whole genome sequence (WGS) for apple (Malus domestica). This WGS, v1. 0, was …

Despite the availability of whole genome sequences of apple and peach, there has been a
considerable gap between genomics and breeding. To bridge the gap, the European Union …

Domestication of the apple was mainly driven by interspecific hybridization. In the present
study, we report the haplotype-resolved genomes of the cultivated apple (Malus domestica …

Using the latest sequencing and optical mapping technologies, we have produced a high-
quality de novo assembly of the apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) genome. Repeat …

Cannabis sativa is widely cultivated for medicinal, food, industrial, and recreational use, but
much remains unknown regarding its genetics, including the molecular determinants of …

Although taste is an important aspect of fruit quality, an understanding of its genetic control
remains elusive in apple and other fruit crops. In this study, we conducted genomic …

High-quality genotypic data is a requirement for many genetic analyses. For any crop, errors
in genotype calls, phasing of markers, linkage maps, pedigree records, and unnoticed …

Soluble sugar and organic acids are key determinants of fruit organoleptic quality and
directly affect the commodity value and economic returns of fruit crops. We performed whole …

Morella rubra, red bayberry, is an economically important fruit tree in south China. Here, we
assembled the first high‐quality genome for both a female and a male individual of red …

Crops of the Rosaceae family provide valuable contributions to rural economies and human
health and enjoyment. Sustained solutions to production challenges and market demands …
