To explore the origins and consequences of tetraploidy, we sequenced the allotetraploid A. hypogaea genome and compared it with the related diploid Arachis duranensis and Arachis ipaensis genomes. We annotated 39 888 A-subgenome genes and 41 526 B-subgenome genes in allotetraploid peanut. The A. hypogaea subgenomes have evolved asymmetrically, with the B subgenome resembling the ancestral state and the A subgenome undergoing more gene disruption, loss, conversion, and transposable element proliferation, and having reduced gene expression during seed development despite lacking genome-wide expression dominance. Genomic and transcriptomic analyses identified more than 2 500 oil metabolism-related genes and revealed that most of them show altered expression early in seed development while their expression ceases during desiccation, presenting a comprehensive map of peanut lipid biosynthesis. The availability of these genomic resources will facilitate a better understanding of the complex genome architecture, agronomically and economically important genes, and genetic improvement of peanut. publisher: Elsevier date: 2019-07 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://oar.icrisat.org/11221/1/1-s2.0-S1674205219300966-main.pdf identifier: Chen, X and Lu, Q and Liu, H and Zhang, J and Hong, Y and Lan, H and Li, H and Wang, J and Liu, H and Li, S and Pandey, M K and Zhang, Z and Zhou, G and Yu, J and Zhang, G and Yuan, J and Li, X and Wen, S and Meng, F and Yu, S and Wang, X and Siddique, K H M and Liu, Z J and Paterson, A H and Varshney, R K and Liang, X (2019) Sequencing of Cultivated Peanut, Arachis hypogaea, Yields Insights into Genome Evolution and Oil Improvement.
