Article Synopsis
  • Zizania palustris L., or northern wild rice (NWR), is a significant North American aquatic grass known for its nutritious grain and vital role in the ecology and culture of the Great Lakes region.
  • Researchers estimated its genome size at 1.8 Gb and created a 1.29 Gb de novo genome assembly, revealing a highly repetitive structure with over 46,000 protein-coding genes.
  • Comparative analyses showed evolutionary changes in the NWR genome, including a whole-genome duplication and gene conservation with Oryza sativa, offering insights for future conservation and agricultural breeding efforts.
