Genomic analyses provide insights into spinach domestication and the genetic basis of agronomic traits
X. Cai, X. Sun, et al.
This groundbreaking study by Xiaofeng Cai and colleagues presents a chromosome-scale reference genome assembly of spinach, highlighting significant genome rearrangements and the effects of artificial selection on leaf traits, bolting, and flowering. Insights into genetic diversity and candidate genes for agronomic traits offer valuable resources for spinach breeding.
