A <i>Citrullus</i> genus super-pangenome reveals extensive variations in wild and cultivated watermelons and sheds light on watermelon evolution and domestication
2023-06-09
Abstract excerpt
Sweet watermelon ( Citrullus lanatus subsp. vulgaris ) is among the most important vegetable crops in the world. Wild relatives are important resources for watermelon breeding. Here we report high-quality reference genomes of three wild watermelons, C. mucosospermus, C. amarus and C. colocynthis , and the divergence and genome evolution of different Citrullus species. Using genomic data from 547 watermelon ac...
