    Picture: Understanding terpenoid genomics is very important for cultivating more flexible and high-quality lavender varieties



    Even the mention of lavender reminds people of the unique fragrance of this flower


    To find out, a group of scientists from China sequenced the genome of lavender (called Lavandula angustifolia in the scientific community)


    Terpenoids play an important role in the biology of aromatic flowers including lavender


    The team first analyzed the high-quality reference genome data of the Chinese lavender variety "Jingxun 2"


    First, the scientists collected the genetic sequences of Chinese lavender varieties


    Their research results were published in the latest issue of Horticulture Research.


    Explaining their observations, Dr.
