Cover Story: Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) has caused substantial economic damage and is considered the greatest challenge to citrus cultivation worldwide. HLB-resistant and tolerant wild Australian limes were utilized in a decade-long citrus breeding program to develop disease-resistant citrus. High-quality de novo genomes of three individual Australian lime parent trees were assembled using long-read sequencing. Putative resistance-associated genes were identified through bioinformatic analysis. The genomic information developed in this study will assist in pre-selecting valuable hybrids in the breeding program and identifying resistance-associated loci to accelerate the development of disease-resistant citrus genotypes through genome-assisted breeding. Resistant citrus cultivars would provide a sustainable solution to HLB disease management. View this paper
