Abstract excerpt
Feralization is an important evolutionary process, but the mechanisms behind it remain poorly understood. Here, we use the ancient fiber crop ramie (Boehmeria nivea (L.) Gaudich.) as a model to investigate genomic changes associated with both domestication and feralization. We first produced a chromosome-scale de novo genome assembly of feral ramie and investigated structural variations between feral and...
