Sequencing the spinach genome and transcriptome to elucidate the photoperiod-dependent flowering pathway
The genome of early-bolting spinach was sequenced using the PacBio system with Circular Consensus Sequencing (CCS) mode to construct a high-quality reference genome sequence. Using this reference genome sequence, transcriptome profiles of early- and late-bolting spinach lines were obtained to elucidate the photoperiod-dependent flowering pathway.
