Genome-wide analysis of NBS-LRR genes in Rosaceae species reveals distinct evolutionary patterns [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
The nucleotide-binding site and leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) genes, one of the largest gene families in plants, are evolving rapidly and playing a critical role in plant resistance to pathogens. In this study, a genome-wide search in 12 Rosaceae genomes

Polyploidy underlies co-option and diversification of biosynthetic triterpene pathways in the apple tribe. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021
Whole-genome duplication (WGD) plays important roles in plant evolution and function, yet little is known about how WGD underlies metabolic diversification of natural products that bear significant medicinal properties, especially in nonmodel trees. Here,

Evolution of SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE (SVP) genes in Rosaceae: Implications of lineage‐specific gene duplication events and function diversifications with respect to their roles in processes other than bud dormancy

The Plant Genome, 2020
MADS‐box genes that are homologous to Arabidopsis SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE (SVP) have been shown to play key roles in the regulation of bud dormancy in perennial species, particularly in the deciduous fruit trees of Rosaceae.

Cultivated hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida var. major) genome sheds light on the evolution of Maleae (apple tribe)

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1487-1501, August 2022., 2022
This report of a chromosome‐level genome of hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida var. major), an important medicinal and edible plant, reveals significant amplification of the genes in the flavonoid and triterpenoid biosynthetic pathways and allows reconstruction of the ancestral chromosomes of Rosaceae, thus improving understanding of apple tribe evolution.
