The chromosome‐level genome provides insight into the molecular mechanism underlying the tortuous‐branch phenotype of Prunus mume

Abstract: Plant with naturally twisted branches is referred to as a tortuous-branch plant, which have extremely high ornamental value due to their zigzag shape and the natural twisting of their branches. Prunus mume is an important woody ornamental plant. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this unique trait in Prunus genus is unknown.Here, we present a chromosome-level genome assembly of the cultivated P. mume var. tortuosa created using Oxford Nanopore combined with Hi-C scaffolding, which resulted in a 237.8 … Show more

“…Therefore, decoding the complicated molecular basis underlying this phenomenon is economically valuable, scientifically interesting and also tremendously challenging (Kucukoglu et al, 2017). In this issue of New Phytologist, Zheng et al (2022; pp. 141-156) utilized a genomics approach to identify candidate genes related to the tortuous-branch phenotype in Prunus mume (Fig.…”

“…Because of their unique ornamental properties, cultivation of tortuous-branch plants has become an important direction in the process of P. mume reproduction. Zheng et al (2022) achieved de novo genome assembly of the first cultivated variety 'Yudie Longyou' using Oxford Nanopore sequencing. With high coverage of multiple types of sequencing reads, including Oxford Nanopore, BGI-seq and Hi-C data, they assembled, polished and scaffolded a high-quality haplotype-resolved genome with a size of 237.7 MB (scaffold N50: 29.4 MB), containing a total of 29 706 protein-coding genes.…”
