Population sequencing enhances understanding of tea plant evolution
2020-03-20
Abstract excerpt
Tea is an economically important plant characterized by a large genome size and high heterozygosity and species diversity. In this study, we assembled a 3.26 Gb high-quality chromosome-scale genome for tea using the ‘Longjing 43’ cultivar of Camellia sinensis var. sinensis . Population resequencing of 139 tea accessions from around the world was used to investigate the evolution of tea and to reveal the phylogen...
