Chromosome-scale genome assembly of kiwifruit <i>Actinidia eriantha</i> with single-molecule sequencing and chromatin interaction mapping

Abstract

We provide a high-quality reference genome for kiwifruit A. eriantha. This chromosome-scale genome assembly is substantially better than 2 published kiwifruit assemblies from A. chinensis in terms of genome contiguity and completeness. The availability of the A. eriantha genome provides a valuable resource for facilitating kiwifruit breeding and studies of kiwifruit biology.
