The reference genome of an endangered Asteraceae, Deinandra increscens subsp. villosa, endemic to the Central Coast of California

Susan L. McEvoy, Rachel Sarah Meyer, Kristen E. Hasenstab‐Lehman, C. Matt Guilliams

The paper presents a high-quality reference genome for the endangered Gaviota tarplant, identifies repeat sequences and tandem genes, and compares its genome to sunflower to infer a shared polyploidization event.
