Abstract
Spinach is an economically important vegetable crop but previous genomic resources were of limited use for comparative and functional analyses. Here, Xuet al. present a high quality draft spinach genome and transcriptome data for multiple Spinaciaaccessions providing insight into Caryophyllales genome evolution.
