Abstract excerpt
The olive family (Oleaceae) comprises numerous species of economic, horticultural, and medicinal importance. Despite its significance, the evolutionary history of this complex family remains enigmatic. Here, we generated a high-quality haplotype-resolved genome of Forsythia suspensa, a distylous species that occupies a key phylogenetic position in Oleaceae. The 2 haplotypes exhibit significant allelic divergence...
