A haplotype-phased genome characterizes the genomic architecture and causal variants for RXf1 conferring resistance to Xanthomonas fragariae in strawberry (F. × ananassa)
Our results narrowed the RXf1 region, identified structural variations within this locus and pointed to FaRGA3 as a promising candidate gene. This information will be useful for breeders toward developing ALS-resistant strawberry varieties, and the high-quality genome will be a valuable resource for further genomics research in octoploid strawberry.
