    Researchers in Japan and Malaysia sequenced the genome of the Southeast Asian rubber tree variety "PRIM600" and successfully mapped the genome of the Southeast Asian rubber tree
    .

    rubber

    The draft genome contains more than 93.
    7% of the rubber tree genetic information
    .
    At present, the research results have been published in
    the British journal Nature sub-journal Scientific Reports.

    Although rubber trees are native to the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, 90% of the rubber trees that produce natural rubber are currently grown in Southeast Asia
    .

    With the development of the global economy, the demand for natural rubber is also increasing, and interpreting the genetic information of rubber trees will help plant rubber trees more scientifically and efficiently to obtain higher quality natural rubber
    .

    It is understood that to complete whole genome sequencing, it usually takes a lot of time and manpower, so many times it is a draft genome
    .
