Abstract excerpt
Carex capillifolia is an ecologically and economically important fodder grass widely distributed across the Northern Hemisphere, particularly in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. Research into its genetic diversity and genomic architecture has been limited. In this study, we present a high-quality genome assembly for C. capillifolia, spanning 386.65 Mb (contig N50 = 14.66 Mb) and comprising 29 chromosomes. Phylogenetic...
