The Almond & Peach Trees Genomes Shed Light on The Differences Between These Close Species
The almond tree and the peach tree are two well-known species since human beings have been eating their fruit (peach) or seed (almond) for thousands of years. Although at first sight, the products of these trees may seem to be very different, both species are part of the Prunus genus and are genetically very similar, so much so that they can be crossed and fertile hybrids can be obtained from them. Now, an international team led by researchers of the Centre for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG) has sequenced the genome of one almond tree variety and compared it to the peach tree genome.
