Next-generation sequencing has allowed for huge advances in developing genomic resources for non-model systems such as Artocarpus. We have assembled a draft genome sequence for A. camansi (breadnut), the wild progenitor of breadfruit, to support target-enrichment phylogenomics (HybSeq) and explore the evolution of genomes in Artocarpus.
