Flax ( L.) products are used in the food, pharmaceutical, textile, polymer, medical, and other industries. The creation of a pan-genome will be an important advance in flax research and breeding.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFlax ( L.) is attacked by numerous devastating fungal pathogens, including , , and (). The effective control of flax diseases follows the paradigm of extensive molecular research on pathogenicity.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFlax is grown worldwide for seed and fiber production. Linseed varieties differ in their oil composition and are used in pharmaceutical, food, feed, and industrial production. The field of application primarily depends on the content of linolenic (LIN) and linoleic (LIO) fatty acids.

For flax ( L.)-a multifunctional crop, high-quality assemblies from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) data were unavailable, largely due to the difficulty of isolating pure high-molecular-weight DNA.
