Abstract

In this issue of Cell, Huang and colleagues reveal how ancient hybridization between ancestors of tomato and a related wild species, Solanum etuberosum, enabled the origin of tuber formation and the diversification of potato species. Their genomic analyses highlight how interactions between genes derived from distinct progenitors can drive development of novel traits in hybrids.

杂交基因组产生块茎发育和马铃薯多样性

在这一期的《细胞》杂志上，黄和他的同事揭示了番茄的祖先与一种相关的野生物种——龙葵（Solanum etuberosum）之间的古代杂交是如何使块茎形成的起源和马铃薯物种的多样化成为可能的。他们的基因组分析强调了来自不同祖先的基因之间的相互作用如何推动杂交后代新性状的发展。

期刊介绍： Cells is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on cell biology, molecular biology, and biophysics. It is affiliated with several societies, including the Spanish Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (SEBBM), Nordic Autophagy Society (NAS), Spanish Society of Hematology and Hemotherapy (SEHH), and Society for Regenerative Medicine (Russian Federation) (RPO). The journal publishes research findings of significant importance in various areas of experimental biology, such as cell biology, molecular biology, neuroscience, immunology, virology, microbiology, cancer, human genetics, systems biology, signaling, and disease mechanisms and therapeutics. The primary criterion for considering papers is whether the results contribute to significant conceptual advances or raise thought-provoking questions and hypotheses related to interesting and important biological inquiries. In addition to primary research articles presented in four formats, Cells also features review and opinion articles in its "leading edge" section, discussing recent research advancements and topics of interest to its wide readership.
