THE CHROMOSOME-LEVEL WINTERSWEET (CHIMONANTHUS PRAECOX) GENOME PROVIDES INSIGHTS INTO FLORAL SCENT BIOSYNTHESIS AND FLOWERING IN WINTER

The chromosome-level wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox) genome provides insights into floral scent biosynthesis and flowering in winter

Abstract Background Wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox), an important ornamental plant, has evolved unique fragrant aroma and winter-flowering properties, which are critical for its successful sexual reproduction.However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these traits are largely unknown in this species.In addition, wintersweet is also a typical r
