Transposon proliferation drives genome architecture and regulatory evolution in wild and domesticated peppers.

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is a widely consumed vegetable with exceptionally large genomes in Solanaceae, yet its genomic evolutionary history remains largely unknown. Here we present 11 high-quality Capsicum genome assemblies, including two gap-free genomes, covering four wild and all five domesticated pepper species.

Pepper variome reveals the history and key loci associated with fruit domestication and diversification.

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is an important vegetable crop that provides a unique pungent sensation when eaten. Through construction of a pepper variome map, we examined the main groups that emerged during domestication and breeding of C.

Development and application of KASP markers associated with gene in L.

Unlabelled: Fertility restoration of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in is controlled by multiple alleles of () genes. The isolation of additional genes should therefore enrich the knowledge of CMS/ systems and accelerate their exploitation in hybrid seed production. In this study, the fertility restorer gene of '0601 M', a non-pungent bell pepper, was genetically mapped to a 1.
