View article: Pangenomics and single-cell transcriptomics uncover the genetic basis of continuous bearing trait in grapevine
Pangenomics and single-cell transcriptomics uncover the genetic basis of continuous bearing trait in grapevine Open
Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is economically important for fresh consumption, winemaking, and drying. The circadian systems of flowering and fruit development are crucial for viticulture and yield formation. However, the genetic basis of con…

Impacts of reproductive systems on grapevine genome and breeding Open
Diversified reproductive systems can be observed in the plant kingdom and applied in crop breeding; however, their impacts on crop genomic variation and breeding remain unclear. Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), a widely planted fruit tree, u…

The genomic and epigenomic landscapes of hemizygous genes across crops with contrasting reproductive systems Open
Hemizygous genes, which are present on only one of the two homologous chromosomes of diploid organisms, have been mainly studied in the context of sex chromosomes and sex-linked genes. However, these genes can also occur on the autosomes o…

Grapevine pangenome facilitates trait genetics and genomic breeding Open
Grapevine breeding is hindered by a limited understanding of the genetic basis of complex agronomic traits. This study constructs a graph-based pangenome reference (Grapepan v.1.0) from 18 newly generated phased telomere-to-telomere assemb…

The genomic and epigenomic landscapes of hemizygous genes across crops with contrasting reproductive systems Open
Hemizygous genes, which present on only one of the two homologous chromosomes of diploid organisms, have been mainly studied in the context of sex chromosomes and sex-linked genes. However, structural variants (SVs), such as a deletion/ins…

Phased telomere-to-telomere reference genome and pangenome reveal an expansion of resistance genes during apple domestication Open
The cultivated apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a cross-pollinated perennial fruit tree of great economic importance. Earlier versions of apple reference genomes were unphased, fragmented, and lacked comprehensive insights into the apple'…

Population comparative genomics discovers gene gain and loss during grapevine domestication Open
Plant domestication are evolutionary experiments conducted by early farmers since thousands years ago, during which the crop wild progenitors are artificially selected for desired agronomic traits along with dramatic genomic variation in t…

Integrative genomics reveals the polygenic basis of seedlessness in grapevine Open
Seedlessness is a crucial quality trait in table grape ( Vitis vinifera L.) breeding. However, the development of seeds involved intricate regulations, while the polygenic basis of seed abortion remains unclear. Here, we combine comparativ…

Adaptive and maladaptive introgression in grapevine domestication Open
Domesticated grapevines spread to Europe around 3,000 years ago. Previous studies have revealed genomic signals of introgression from wild to cultivated grapes in Europe, but the time, mode, genomic pattern, and biological effects of these…

Coexpression of PalbHLH1 and PalMYB90 Genes From Populus alba Enhances Pathogen Resistance in Poplar by Increasing the Flavonoid Content Open
Secondary metabolites of the flavonoid pathway participate in plant defense, and bHLH and MYB transcription factors regulate the synthesis of these metabolites. Here, we define the regulatory mechanisms in response to pathogens. Two transc…

Genome-Wide Identification of Long Noncoding RNAs and Their Responses to Salt Stress in Two Closely Related Poplars Open
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various biological regulatory processes, but their roles in plants resistance to salt stress remain largely unknown. To systematically explore the characteristics of lncRNAs and their roles in …
