Development of the 4TREE SNP array, a forest multispecies array to enhance European Breeding and conservation programs in pine, poplar and ash.

The paper develops a 4TREE SNP array for three forest tree species to support breeding and conservation programs.

Two high-quality rose genomes underpin a novel Rosa pangenome to advance rose genomics, phylogenetics, and breeding

This study presents two high-quality rose genomes and constructs a Rosa pangenome to explore genetic diversity, evolution, and breeding potential in the genus Rosa.

De novo whole-genome assembly of Chrysanthemum makinoi, a key wild ancestor to hexaploid Chrysanthemum

This paper presents a high-quality de novo genome assembly of Chrysanthemum makinoi, a wild diploid ancestor of cultivated chrysanthemums, using long-read and short-read sequencing technologies.

Detecting quantitative trait loci and exploring chromosomal pairing in autopolyploids using polyqtlR

The paper introduces polyqtlR, a tool for QTL analysis in polyploid crops, enabling detection of QTL, exploration of allelic composition, and analysis of meiotic processes.

A high-quality sequence of Rosa chinensis to elucidate genome structure and ornamental traits

The paper presents a high-quality reference genome for Rosa chinensis, elucidating genome structure and genetic basis of ornamental traits.

polymapR: linkage analysis and genetic map construction from F1 populations of outcrossing polyploids

polymapR is an R package for genetic linkage analysis and map construction in polyploid crops, handling triploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid data with preferential pairing correction.
