Unravelling genomic drivers of speciation in Musa through genome assemblies of wild banana ancestors

Unravelling genomic drivers of speciation in Musa through genome assemblies of wild banana ancestors

Abstract Hybridization between wild Musa species and subspecies from Southeast Asia is at the origin of cultivated bananas. The genomes of these cultivars are complex mosaics involving nine genetic groups, including two previously unknown contributors. This study provides continuous genome assemblie...
