Long-read sequencing and Hi-C technology were adopted to construct the reference genome, and the evolutionary logic of species chromosomal differentiation shaped by ancient polyploidization was analyzed.
Core Findings
Generated a high-precision chromosome-level genome assembly of Acanthopanax senticosus
Clarified the distribution characteristics of repetitive sequences across Araliaceae genomes
Verified that ancient polyploidization events drove chromosomal differentiation within this plant group
