Genome sequencing of a one-leaf plant, Monophyllaea glabra
Monophyllaea is a unique genus characterized by its distinctive morphology. It continues to grow one of its cotyledons and never produces new vegetative organs, such as stems and foliage leaves. In this project, the genome of Monophyllaea glabra, a rare annual species suitable as a model for molecular studies in the Monophyllaea, was sequenced to understand its peculiar features.
