Genomic, transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of Amorphophallus albus provides insights into the evolution and resistance to southern blight pathogen by Longfei Duan, Longfei Duan, Jianfeng Qin, Gaoxin Zhou, Chuan Shen, Baofu Qin

“…IntroductionAmorphophallus albus, a perennial herb in the Araceae family, is a valuable cash crop known for its high production of konjac glucomannan and high disease resistance.MethodsIn this study, we present a high-quality, chromosome-scale genome assembly of A. albus using a combination of PacBio HiFi sequencing, DNBSEQ short-read sequencing, and Hi-C technology. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying southern blight resistance, we performed an integrated analysis of transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles across three infection stages of A. albus.Results and discussionHere, we assembled and annotated the complete genome of A. albus, providing a chromosome-level assembly with a total genome size of 5.94 Gb and a contig N50 of 5.61 Mb. …”
