Landscape genomics identifies how spatial and environmental factors structure the amount
and distribution of genetic variation among populations. Landscape genomic analyses have …

Crop genomics remains a key element in ensuring scientific progress to secure global food
security. It has been two decades since the sequence of the first plant genome, that of …

The origin of domesticated Asian rice (Oryza sativa L.) has been controversial for more than
half a century. The debates have focused on two leading hypotheses: a single domestication …

Deep knowledge of crop biodiversity is essential to improving global food security. Despite
bread wheat serving as a keystone crop worldwide, the population history of bread wheat …

Southern China and Southeast Asia witnessed some of their most significant economic and
social changes relevant to human land use during the Late Holocene, including the …

Upland rice is a distinct ecotype that grows in aerobic environments and tolerates drought
stress. However, the genetic basis of its drought resistance is unclear. Here, using an …

Eco-efficiency, defined as the economic profit per unit of environmental impact, can largely
differ between farms that produce the same crop. Understanding the underlying drivers of …

Background Asian rice is one of the world's most widely cultivated crops. Large-scale
resequencing analyses have been undertaken to explore the domestication and de …

Detailed knowledge of the genetic variations in diverse crop populations forms the basis for
genetic crop improvement and gene functional studies. In the present study, we analyzed a …

Understanding and exploiting genetic diversity is a key factor for the productive and stable
production of rice. Here, we utilize 73 high-quality genomes that encompass the …
