Abstract Background A pangenome aims to capture the complete genetic diversity within a species and reduce bias in analysis inherent using single reference genome. However, current linear format of most plant pangenomes limits presentation position information for novel sequences. Graph have been developed overcome this limitation. bioinformatics tools graph genomes are lacking. Results To problem, we develop strategy construction downstream pipeline (PSVCP) that captures variants’ while maintaining linearized layout. Using PSVCP, construct high-quality rice 12 representative analyze an international panel with 413 diverse accessions as reference.

Global food security depends heavily on a few staple crops, while orphan despite being less studied, offer the potential benefits of environmental adaptation and enhanced nutritional traits, especially in changing climate. Major crops have benefited from genomics-based breeding, initially using single genomes later pangenomes. Recent advances DNA sequencing enabled pangenome construction for several offering more comprehensive understanding genetic diversity. Orphan crop research has now entered pangenomics era applying these pangenomes with advanced selection methods genome editing technologies can transform neglected species into broader agricultural significance. A reference is not enough to harness full variation species. Here, authors review principles, applications improvement, discuss possible ways support pangenomics-driven molecular breeding.

Abstract A pan-transcriptome describes the transcriptional and post-transcriptional consequences of genome diversity from multiple individuals within a species. We developed barley using 20 inbred genotypes representing domesticated by generating analyzing short- long-read RNA-sequencing datasets tissues. To overcome single reference bias in transcript quantification, we constructed genotype-specific (RTDs) integrated these into linear pan-genome framework to create pan-RTD, allowing categorization as core, shell or cloud. Focusing on core (expressed all genotypes), observed significant abundance variation among tissues between driven partly RNA processing, gene copy number, structural rearrangements conservation promotor motifs. Network analyses revealed conserved co-expression module::tissue correlations frequent functional diversification. complement pan-transcriptome, comprehensive cultivar (cv.)

Transposable elements (TEs) have a profound influence on the trajectory of plant evolution, driving genome expansion and catalyzing phenotypic diversification. The pangenome, comprehensive genetic pool encompassing all variations within species, serves as an invaluable tool, unaffected by confounding factors intraspecific diversity.
