Increasing the proportion of locally produced plant protein in currently meat-rich diets could substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions and loss biodiversity1. However, production is hampered by lack a cool-season legume equivalent to soybean agronomic value2. Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) has high yield potential well suited for cultivation temperate regions, but genomic resources are scarce. Here, we report high-quality chromosome-scale assembly genome show that it expanded massive 13 Gb...
• In this study, complementary species-level and intraspecific phylogenies were used to better circumscribe the original native range history of translocation invasive tree Parkinsonia aculeata. Species-level reconstructed using three chloroplast gene regions, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers reconstruct phylogeny. Together, these revealed timescale transcontinental lineage divergence likely source recent introductions invasive. The sequence data showed that between...
