Abstract excerpt
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a globally vital crop for oil production and food security. High-quality genomic resources are instrumental for both functional genomics and breeding. Here, we report a near-complete, high-quality genome assembly of the elite cultivar Tianlong 1 (TL1), featuring fully resolved telomeres and centromeres, as well as a gap-free assembly of 14 of its 20 chromosomes. On the basis of the...
