Wheat blast, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae Triticum (MoT) pathotype, is a
devastating disease persistent in South America and Bangladesh. Since MoT generally fails …

Here, we report the genome sequence of a popular Japanese chili pepper landrace,
Capsicum annuum 'Takanotsume'. We used long-read sequencing and optical mapping …

Transposable elements (TEs) are a major source of genetic and regulatory variation in their
host genome and are consequently thought to play important roles in evolution. Many fungal …

Comprehensive and accurate annotation of the repeatome, including transposons, is critical
for deepening our understanding of repeat origins, biogenesis, regulatory mechanisms, and …

Here, we report the first telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of matsutake (Tricholoma
matsutake), which consists of 13 sequences (spanning 161.0 Mb) and a 76 kb circular …

Traditional rice blast resistance breeding largely depends on utilizing typical resistance (R)
genes. However, the lack of durable R genes has prompted rice breeders to find new …

Transposable element (TE) marker system was developed considering the useful properties
of the transposable elements such as their large number in the animal and plant genomes …

Objective In peanut, the DNA polymorphism is very low despite enormous phenotypic
variations. This limits the use of genomics-assisted breeding to enhance peanut productivity …

Miniature inverted‐repeat transposable elements (MITE s) are structurally homogeneous
non‐autonomous DNA transposons with high copy numbers that play important roles in …
