Open AccessTwo divergent haplotypes from a highly heterozygous lychee genome suggest independent domestication events for early and late-maturing cultivars
Lychee is an exotic tropical fruit with a distinct flavor. The genome of cultivar ‘Feizixiao’ was assembled into 15 pseudochromosomes, totaling ~470 Mb. High heterozygosity (2.27%) resulted in two complete hap...
