Abstract excerpt
Apomixis, a form of clonal asexual reproduction in plants, is often accompanied by residual sex, yet its genomic consequences remain poorly understood. Here, we assembled a haplotype-resolved genome of Carya hunanensis and analyzed whole-genome resequencing data from 195 adults and 180 mature embryos across four hickory species, representing a hybrid apomictic complex with both sexual and asexual lineages. We...
