Abstract The hexaploid sweetpotato ( Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam.) is a globally important stable crop and plays significant role in biofortification. high resilience adaptability of provide it with advantages addressing food security climate change issues. Here we report haplotype-resolved chromosome-level genome assembly an African cultivar, ‘Tanzania’, which enables ancestry inference along the haplotype-phased chromosomes. Our analyses reveal that wild tetraploid I. aequatoriensis , currently found coastal Ecuador, closest known relative likely direct descendant one progenitors. other unknown progenitor(s) have closer genetic relationship to 4×, distributed Central America, than . different ancestral sequences are not typical subgenomes but intertwined on same chromosomes, possibly due non-preferential recombination among haplotypes. Although 4× was involved hexaploidization event, introgression from evident. study improves our understanding origin provides valuable genomic resources accelerate breeding.

Abstract Withania somnifera, commonly referred to as Indian Ginseng, is a medicinally important plant that can be found in many regions of the world, such South Africa and India. Withanolides are key secondary metabolites responsible for conferring its unique medicinal properties. The reaction W. somnifera salt stress, particular possible effects on withanolide production, have yet explored. Under germination efficiency dropped by 17.8% caused physiological damage emerging roots. A transcriptome analysis stressed leaves revealed differential regulation 3 048 transcripts, with gene ontology indicating an increased detoxification response concomitant reduced growth, energy metabolism protein modification. Notably, 26 transcription factor families, particularly AP2/ERF, NAC, GRAS HB-WOX members well 10 Late Embryogenesis-Abundant members, predominantly dehydrins, were significantly differentially regulated, suggesting their potential involvement stress somnifera. Although pathway genes showed limited treatment, three (HMGS, FPPS WsCYP98A) downregulated. This study provides valuable insights into molecular responses highlighting targets future research subsequently production which has vast pharmaceutical industry.
