Chromosomal inversions have the potential to play an important role in evolution by
reducing recombination between favorable combinations of alleles. Until recently, however …

Until recently, achieving a reference‐quality genome sequence for bread wheat was long
thought beyond the limits of genome sequencing and assembly technology, primarily due to …

Rye (Secale cereale L.) is an exceptionally climate-resilient cereal crop, used extensively to
produce improved wheat varieties via introgressive hybridization and possessing the entire …

Multiple cotton genomes (diploid and tetraploid) have been assembled. However, genomic
variations between cultivars of allotetraploid upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), the …

SUMMARY The section Oleifera (Theaceae) has attracted attention for the high levels of
