Abstract
Clausena lansium (Lour.) Skeels (Rutaceae), recognized as wampee, is a widely distributed fruit tree which is utilized as a folk-medicine for treatment of several common diseases. However, the genomic information about this medicinally important species is still lacking. Therefore, we assembled the first genome of Clausena genus with a total length of 310.51 Mb and scaffold N50 of 2.24 Mb by using 10× Genomics technology. Further annotation revealed a total of 34,419 protein-coding genes, while repetitive elements covered 39.08% (121.36 Mb) of the genome. The Clausena and Citrus genus were found to diverge around 22 MYA, and also shared an ancient whole-genome triplication event with Vitis. Furthermore, multi-tissue transcriptomic analysis enabled the identification of genes involved in the synthesis of carbazole alkaloids. Altogether, these findings provided new insights into the genome evolution of Wampee species and highlighted the possible role of key genes involved in the carbazole alkaloids biosynthetic pathway.
