The genome sequence of thale cress, Arabidopsis thaliana (Heynh., 1842).
We present a genome assembly of an specimen (thale cress; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Brassicales; Brassicaceae). The genome sequence spans 138 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.76%) is scaffolded into five chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial and plastid genomes were also assembled and are 368.8 and 154.5 kilobases in length respectively.Christenhusz, Maarten J.M. ; Twyford, Alex D. ; Hudson, Andrew ; Genome Acquisition Lab, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ; Genome Acquisition Lab, Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh …

Genetic factors predict hybrid formation in the British flora.
Natural hybridization can have a profound evolutionary impact, with consequences ranging from the extinction of rare taxa to the origin of new species. Natural hybridization is particularly common in plants; however, our understanding of the general factors that promote or prevent hybridization is hampered by the highly variable outcomes in...Brown, Max R. ; Hollingsworth, Peter M. ; Forrest, Laura L. ; Hart, Michelle L. ; Leitch, Ilia J. …

A taxonomic, genetic and ecological data resource for the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland.
The vascular flora of Britain and Ireland is among the most extensively studied in the world, but the current knowledge base is fragmentary, with taxonomic, ecological and genetic information scattered across different resources. Here we present the first comprehensive data repository of native and alien species optimized for fast and...Henniges, Marie C. ; Powell, Robyn F. ; Mian, Sahr ; Stace, Clive A. ; Walker, Kevin J. …

Current knowledge, status, and future for plant and fungal diversity in Great Britain and the UK Overseas Territories
Societal Impact Statement We rely on plants and fungi for most aspects of our lives. Yet plants and fungi are under threat, and we risk losing species before we know their identity, roles, and potential uses. Knowing names, distributions, and threats are first steps toward effective conservation action. Accessible products...
