The high-quality genome of lotus reveals tandem duplicate genes involved in stress response and secondary metabolites biosynthesis
Dear Editor,
Lotus(Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.),which has been domesticated and cultivated for several thousands of years and endowed with religious and cultural symbolism[1],belongs to the Nelumbo genus Nelumbonaceae family.As an early eudicot,it is not only essential for plant phylogeny but also widely used as a vegetable,a medic-inal herb,and for ornamental use.It contains abundant func-tional compounds,such as flavonoids and benzylisoquinoline alkaloids(BIAs),which are used to treat diverse diseases.A high-quality genome assembly is necessary to facilitate its breeding and efficient usage.
