Haplotype-resolved genome assembly and resequencing analysis provide insights into genome evolution and allelic imbalance in <i>Pinus densiflora</i>

Nature Genetics, Published online: 20 October 2024; doi:10.1038/s41588-024-01944-yChromosome-scale and haplotype-resolved assembly of Pinus densiflora sheds light on Pinus-specific genome enlargement. Comparison between haplotypes and resequencing of 30 wild accessions show allelic imbalance with roles in flowering regulation and stress resistance.
