Genome biology of the paleotetraploid perennial biomass crop Miscanthus
Abstract
Miscanthus
is a perennial wild grass that is of global importance for paper production, roofing, horticultural plantings, and an emerging highly productive temperate biomass crop. We report a chromosome-scale assembly of the paleotetraploid
M. sinensis
genome, providing a resource for
Miscanthus
that links its chromosomes to the related diploid
Sorghum
and complex polyploid sugarcanes. The asymmetric distribution of transposons across the two homoeologous subgenomes proves
Miscanthus
paleo-allotetraploidy and identifies several balanced reciprocal homoeologous exchanges. Analysis of
M. sinensis
and
M. sacchariflorus
populations demonstrates extensive interspecific admixture and hybridization, and documents the origin of the highly productive triploid bioenergy crop
M. × giganteus
. Transcriptional profiling of leaves, stem, and rhizomes over growing seasons provides insight into rhizome development and nutrient recycling, processes critical for sustainable biomass accumulation in a perennial temperate grass. The
Miscanthus
genome expands the power of comparative genomics to understand traits of importance to Andropogoneae grasses.
