The genome sequence of the tree of heaven, Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, 1916.
We present a genome assembly from an individual (tree of heaven; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Sapindales; Simaroubaceae). The genome sequence is 939 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies are 661.1 kilobases and 161.1 kilobases long, respectively.Schley, Rowan J. ; Leitch, Ilia J. ; Christenhusz, Maarten J.

Introgression across evolutionary scales suggests reticulation contributes to Amazonian tree diversity
Hybridisation has the potential to generate or homogenize biodiversity and is a particularly common phenomenon in plants, with an estimated 25% of plant species undergoing inter‐specific gene flow. However, hybridisation in Amazonia’s megadiverse tree flora was assumed to be extremely rare despite extensive sympatry between closely related species, and its...
