Crop Genomics Goes Beyond a Single Reference Genome

Yongfu Tao et al. Trends Plant Sci. 2019 Dec.

Abstract

The inadequacy of a single reference genome to capture the full landscape of genetic diversity within a species constrains exploration of genetic variation for crop improvement. A recent study by Yang et al. has demonstrated the value of multiple reference-quality genomes in capturing structural variants and guiding biological discovery.
