Abstract excerpt
Mango (Mangifera indica) is one of the most popular fruits cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The availability of reference genomes helps to identify the genetic basis of important traits. Here, we report assembled high-quality chromosome-level genomes for the Australian mango cultivar 'Kensington Pride' and M. laurina, a wild relative, which shows resistance to anthracnose disease....
