De novo assembly and characterization of the first draft genome of quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.)

Abstract Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.) is the sole member of the genus Cydonia in the Rosacea family and closely related to the major pome fruits, apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and pear (Pyrus communis L.). In the present work, whole genome shotgun paired-end sequencing was employed in order to as...
