Abstract:Toona fargesii (T. fargesii) is a deciduous tree of the Meliaceae family which is utilized for high-value timber. Interestingly, root sprouting is a typical reproductive pattern in T. fargesii. Nevertheless, the genetics underlying this phenomenon are still unclear. Here, three type of roots of T. fargesii were used for histological observation, plant endogenous hormone determination, non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) determination, and sequencing using the Illumina next-generation and PacBio SMRT platforms.
