Chromosome-level genome of Osmia excavata (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) provides insights into low-temperature tolerance of Osmia pollinator.

The solitary bee Osmia excavata (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) is a key pollinator managed on a large scale. It has been widely used for commercial pollination of fruit trees, vegetables, and other crops with high efficiency in increasing the crop seeding rate, yield, and seed quality in Northern hemisphere. Here, a high-quality chromosome-level genome of O.

The chrysanthemum lavandulifolium genome and the molecular mechanism underlying diverse capitulum types.

Cultivated chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum × morifolium Ramat.) is a beloved ornamental crop due to the diverse capitula types among varieties, but the molecular mechanism of capitulum development remains unclear. Here, we report a 2.

De novo assembly of a new Olea europaea genome accession using nanopore sequencing.

Olive (Olea europaea L.) is internationally renowned for its high-end product, extra virgin olive oil. An incomplete genome of O.

Construction and analysis of high-density linkage map using high-throughput sequencing data.

Linkage maps enable the study of important biological questions. The construction of high-density linkage maps appears more feasible since the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS), which eases SNP discovery and high-throughput genotyping of large population. However, the marker number explosion and genotyping errors from NGS data challenge the computational efficiency and linkage map quality of linkage study methods.

Construction of a high-density genetic map for sesame based on large scale marker development by specific length amplified fragment (SLAF) sequencing.

Background: The genetics and molecular biology of sesame has only recently begun to be studied even though sesame is an important oil seed crop. A high-density genetic map for sesame has not been published yet due to a lack of sufficient molecular markers. Specific length amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) is a recently developed high-resolution strategy for large-scale de novo SNP discovery and genotyping.
