Deskripsi

Litsea cubeba belongs to the Lauraceae family within the Magnoliids clade. Here, the authors assemble its genome and reveal divergence of inflorescence and sexual differentiation, the phylogenetic relationships across the Lauraceae and related species, and biosynthetic genes related to essential oil synthesis.
