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 …

We report de novo genome assemblies, transcriptomes, annotations, and methylomes for
the 26 inbreds that serve as the founders for the maize nested association mapping …

Sequence assembly of large and repeat-rich plant genomes has been challenging,
requiring substantial computational resources and often several complementary sequence …

Green plants play a fundamental role in ecosystems, human health, and agriculture. As de
novo genomes are being generated for all known eukaryotic species as advocated by the …

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 …

Euphyllophytes encompass almost all extant plants, including two sister clades, ferns and
seed plants. Decoding genomes of ferns is the key to deep insight into the origin of …

Advances in long-read sequencing technologies and genome assembly methods have
enabled the recent completion of the first telomere-to-telomere human genome assembly …

Genome alignment is one of the most foundational methods for genome sequence studies.
With rapid advances in sequencing and assembly technologies, these newly assembled …
