Citrus HLB caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus is a pathogen-triggered immune disease. Here, we identified putative genetic determinants of pathogenicity integrating citrus genomic resources to characterize the pan-genome accessions that differ in their response HLB. Genome-wide association mapping and analysis allele-specific expression between susceptible, tolerant, resistant further refined candidates underlying We first developed phased diploid assembly sinensis 'Newhall' genome...

Navel orange cv. Gannanzao is a variant of the navel Newhall (Citrus sinensis Osbeck Newhall) that exhibits an earlier maturation, making it commercially valuable. However, mechanisms underlying its early maturation remain obscure. To address this question, we conducted genome sequencing and de novo assembly Gannanzao. The assembled sequence 334.57 Mb in length with GC content 31.48%. It comprises 318 contigs (N50 = 3.23 Mb) 187 scaffolds 31.86 Mb). Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy...

NLR genes are crucial components of the effector-triggered immunity (ETI) system, which recognizes pathogens and initiates immune responses. While in many plants have been extensively studied, diversity citrus remains largely unknown. In this study, we systematically identified 1,585 across genomes 10 species. Significant variations gene copy numbers were observed among these species, with duplication recombination as major driving forces. Citrus classified into TIR-NBS-LRR (TNL), CC-NBS-LRR...

NLR genes are crucial components of the effector-triggered immunity (ETI) system, responsible for recognizing pathogens and initiating immune responses. Although in many plant species have been extensively studied, diversity citrus remains largely unknown. Our analysis revealed significant variations copy numbers among these species. Gene duplication recombination were identified as major driving forces behind this diversity. Additionally, horizontal gene transfer (HGT) emerged principal...

Summary Citrus is one of the most important tree crops worldwide and citrus production threatened by Huanglongbing (HLB), a devasting disease caused Candidatus Liberibacter. HLB pathogen-triggered immune disease, in which pathogen initiates systemic chronic responses including excessive reactive oxidative species, subsequently lead to cell death phloem tissues symptoms. Here, we identified putative genetic determinants pathogenicity integrating genomic resources characterize pan-genome...
