Abstract:Chinese walnut (Juglans cathayensis Dode), is a diploid, woody species native to China. It has 16 chromosomes (2n =2x= 32), as do all members of its genus and most members of its family (Juglandaceae). Although high-quality sequence data and reference genomes are available for several Juglans species, our goal was to produce a de novo, chromosome-level assembly of the Chinese walnut genome to gain insights into the species' evolution and biology. Our assembly was based on Nanopore long reads and chromosome con… Show more
