Popis: | Summary Magnolia officinalis, a representative tall aromatic tree of the Magnoliaceae family, is a medicinal plant that is widely used in diverse industries from medicine to cosmetics. We report a chromosome-scale draft genome of M. officinalis, in which ∼99.66% of the sequences were anchored onto 19 chromosomes with the scaffold N50 of 76.62 Mb. We found that a high proportion of repetitive sequences was a common feature of three Magnoliaceae with known genomic data. Magnoliids were a sister clade to eudicots-monocots, which provided more support for understanding the phylogenetic position among angiosperms. An ancient duplication event occurred in the genome of M. officinalis and was shared with Lauraceae. Based on RNA-seq analysis, we identified several key enzyme-coding gene families associated with the biosynthesis of lignans in the genome. The construction of the M. officinalis genome sequence will serve as a reference for further studies of Magnolia, as well as other Magnoliaceae. Graphical abstract Highlights • We provide a chromosome-scale genome for Magnolia officinalis • We explore the phylogenetic position of Magnoliids • Analysis for lignan biosynthetic pathway is reported • We identify terpenes synthase in the floral fragrance composition of Magnolia Biological sciences; Genetics; Evolutionary biology; Bioinformatics; Genomic analysis; Genomics |
