On January 22 in Current Biology, a team of Harvard-led researchers presented the most complete genome yet assembled of one of the major Rafflesiaceae lineages, Sapria himalayana.
The species is found in Southeast Asia and its mottled red and white flower is about the size of a dinner plate. (It’s more famous cousin, Rafflesia arnoldii, produces blossoms nearly three feet in diameter, the largest in the world.)
