Genome Sequence Information in Fruit Crops: Current Status

Recent technological advancement in next-generation sequencing (NGS), plants can be prioritized for sequencing in relation to their value to humans. NGS provides the possibility of cost-efficient whole genome sequencing. Notable developments pertaining to genome sequencing of fruit crops are highlighted. These sequence information has been used extensively for analyzing and understanding structural and functional genomics for various biotic and abiotic stresses. *Corresponding author: Nimisha Sharma, Division of Fruits and Horticultural Technology, ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India, Tel: +911125843214; E-mail: [email protected] Received January 28, 2016; Accepted February 20, 2016; Published February 24, 2016 Citation: Sharma N, Singh SK, Lal S, Singh NK (2016) Genome Sequence Information in Fruit Crops: Current Status.
