Description
Chuqiao Tang and others present the first full genome build for Manglietia pachyphylla, a rare green tree in the magnolia group. In 2026, the study joins PacBio HiFi long reads with Hi-C contact data from samples gathered in Guangdong Province, China. The species is state-protected and kept to a small range with split groups.
The 2.15-billion-base build places nearly all sequence onto 19 long pieces, with high finish and over forty-two thousand likely protein-coding genes, most with known roles. Family-tree work groups the tree closely with Oyama sieboldii. The genome enables studies of how the tree adapts, its variety, and plans to save this at-risk species.
