Abstract
- Dianthus caryophyllus is an economic species often considered excellent cut flowers and is suitable for bouquets and gardens. Here, we assembled the haplotype-resolved genome of D. caryophyllus 'Aili' at the chromosome level for the first time. The total lengths of the two assembled haplotypes of carnation were 584.88 Mb for haplotype genome 1 (hap1) and 578.78 Mb for haplotype genome 2 (hap2), respectively. We predicted a total of 44,098 and 42,425 protein-coding genes, respectively. The remarkable structure variation was identified between two haplotypes. Moreover, we identified 403.80 Mb of transposable elements (TEs) in hap1, which accounted for 69.34% of the genome. In contrast, hap2 had 402.70 Mb of TEs, representing 69.61% of the genome. Long terminal repeats were the predominant transposable elements. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the species differentiation time between carnation and gypsophila was estimated to be ~54.43 MYA. The unique gene families of carnation genomes were identified in 'Aili' and previously published 'Francesco' and 'Scarlet Queen'. The assembled and annotated haplotyperesolved D. caryophyllus genome not only promises to facilitate molecular biology studies but also contributes to genome-level evolutionary studies.
