Taxus yunnanensis genome offers insights into gymnosperm phylogeny and taxol production

Song, Fu, Yang, Niu, Tian, et al. present a high-quality genome assembly and transcriptome data of Taxus yunnanensis, a plant belonging to the Taxus genus known for sources of traditional medicine and natural anticancer drugs. This study explores the Taxus evolutionary history and sheds light on the...
