| Innovation Title | Banana Musa balbisiana high quality B-genome sequence for evolution, genetic diversity and functional divergence of subgenomes of banana in China |
| Innovation description | The majority of edible cultivated bananas originated from intraspecific or interspecific hybridization between wild diploid M. acuminata (A-genome) and M. balbisiana (B-genome) species. A high-quality B-genome sequence is required for germplasm characterization and molecular breeding of banana. This high quality sequence has been completed and used to analyze evolution, genetic diversity and functional divergence of subgenomes of banana, providing insights into the evolution and regulation of fruit ripening processes. |
