Decoding the massive genome of loblolly pine using haploid DNA and novel assembly strategies

Background The size and complexity of conifer genomes has, until now, prevented full genome sequencing and assembly. The large research community and economic importance of loblolly pine, Pinus taeda L., made it an early candidate for reference sequence determination
