Decoding Wild Rice Genomes: A New Era for Climate-Resilient Agriculture

Asian rice, domesticated around 10,000 years ago, is a dietary staple for more than one third of the global population. Yet, intensive breeding for improved yield has reduced its genetic diversity – making modern varieties increasingly vulnerable to stressors like … more »

Telomere-to-telomere reference genome reveals subgenome divergence and large structural variants in Capsella bursa-pastoris (Brassicaceae)

March 2025 Authors: Xin Liu, Lu Liu, Hai-Fei Yan, Xue-Jun Ge, Hui-Run Huang Abstract: “Capsella is a model genus for studying polyploid speciation and mating system transitions. Here, we report a subgenome-resolved telomere-to-telomere reference genome of Capsella bursa-pastoris, the only … more »
