The wild sweetpotato (Ipomoea trifida) genome provides insights into storage root development
Abstract Background Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is the seventh most important crop in the world and is mainly cultivated for its underground storage root (SR). The genetic studies of this species have been hindered by a lack of high-quality reference sequence due to its complex genome st...
