High‐resolution genome and genetic map of tetraploid Allium porrum expose pericentromeric recombination [PDF]
The Plant GenomeWe present the first reference genome of the highly heterozygous autotetraploid Allium porrum (leek). Combining long‐read sequencing with single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)‐array screening of two experimental F1 populations, we generated a genetic map ...

The Biosynthesis of Infrared-Emitting Quantum Dots in Allium Fistulosum. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractThe development of simple routes to emissive solid-state materials is of paramount interest and in this report we describe the biosynthesis of infrared emitting quantum dots in a living plant via a mutual antagonistic reaction. Exposure of common Allium fistulosum to mercury and tellurium salts under ambient conditions resulted in the expulsion
