<b>Chromosome-level genome assembly of the tetraploid Chinese cherry (</b><b><i>Prunus</i></b><b> </b><b><i>pseudocerasus</i></b><b>)</b>

we present a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for Chinese cherry 'Duiying'. The high-quality genome of 'Duiying' was obtained via Illumina, Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) high-fidelity (HiFi), and BioNano sequencing combined with 10× genomic and high-throughput/resolution chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) technologies. The genome sequence of <i>P. pseudocerasus</i> 'Duiying' reported here will be a valuable resource for genetic studies and breeding programs in cherry plants, both for exploring the genome evolution of Rosaceae/<i> Prunus</i>, and the full use of its excellent trait gene resources.

本研究报道了中国樱桃‘对樱’（Duiying）的高质量染色体级基因组组装结果。本研究结合Illumina测序、太平洋生物科学（PacBio）高保真（HiFi）测序、BioNano测序，以及10×基因组学和高通量高分辨率染色体构象捕获（Hi-C）技术，成功获得了‘对樱’的高质量基因组序列。本研究所报道的中国樱桃（*Prunus pseudocerasus*）‘对樱’基因组序列，将成为樱桃属植物遗传研究与育种项目的宝贵资源，既可用于解析蔷薇科（Rosaceae）/李属（Prunus）的基因组演化规律，也可助力充分挖掘其优良性状相关的基因资源。
