Publication of the complete genome sequence of Arabidopsis thaliana, the first plant
reference genome, in December 2000 heralded the beginning of the plant genome era …

As a major event in human civilization, wild plants were successfully domesticated to be
crops, largely owing to continuing artificial selection. Here, we summarize new discoveries …

A complete telomere-to-telomere (T2T) finished genome has been the long pursuit of
genomic research. Through generating deep coverage ultralong Oxford Nanopore …

Watermelon, Citrullus lanatus, is the world's third largest fruit crop. Reference genomes with
gaps and a narrow genetic base hinder functional genomics and genetic improvement of …

A high-quality genome is the basis for studies on functional, evolutionary, and comparative
genomics. The majority of attention has been paid to the solution of complex chromosome …

Kiwifruit is an economically and nutritionally important fruit crop with extremely high contents
of vitamin C. However, the previously released versions of kiwifruit genomes all have a mass …

Plant genomes are so highly diverse that a substantial proportion of genomic sequences are
not shared among individuals. The variable DNA sequences, along with the conserved core …

The concept of pan-genome, which is the collection of all genomes from a population, has
shown a great potential in genomics study, especially for crop sciences. The rice pan …

Arabidopsis thaliana is an important and long-established model species for plant molecular
biology, genetics, epigenetics, and genomics. However, the latest version of reference …

Kiwifruit is a recently domesticated horticultural fruit crop with substantial economic and
nutritional value, especially because of the high content of vitamin C in its fruit. In this study …
