Background: Preimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) has been widely utilized to select euploid embryos in patients carrying balanced chromosomal rearrangements (BCRs) by chromosome copy number analysis. However, reliable and extensively validated PGT-SR methods for selecting embryos without BCRs in large-cohort studies are lacking.

Methods: In this prospective, multicenter, cohort study, carriers with BCRs undergoing PGT-SR were recruited across 12 academic fertility centers within China.

Gammaretroviral vectors are widely used in cellular and gene therapy products because of the availability of stable vector producer cells. Accurately assessing vector copy number (VCN) is critical for selecting appropriate clones to avoid the risks of homologous recombination and complications in mutation detection. Traditional methods such as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern blotting have limitations in accuracy and throughput.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study presents the first comprehensive genome assembly of a significant plant in traditional Chinese medicine, revealing its edible and medicinal traits while addressing the lack of genomic resources.
  • - The genome assembly is high-quality at 679.20 Mb, anchored to 8 pseudo-chromosomes with a 96.5% anchoring rate and demonstrates high completeness at 97.6%, indicating a well-structured genomic framework.
  • - The research highlights the evolutionary history of the plant, including its polyploidization and gene family expansions, providing critical insights for conservation and sustainable utilization of the species.
