ABSTRACT
Plant genomics and crop breeding are at the intersection of biotechnology and information technology. Driven by a combination of high-throughput sequencing, molecular biology and data science, great advances have been made in omics technologies at every step along the central dogma, especially in genome assembling, genome annotation, epigenomic profiling, and transcriptome profiling. These advances further revolutionized three directions of development. One is genetic dissection of complex traits in crops, along with genomic prediction and selection. The second is comparative genomics and evolution, which open up new opportunities to depict the evolutionary constraints of biological sequences for deleterious variant discovery. The third direction is the development of deep learning approaches for the rational design of biological sequences, especially proteins, for synthetic biology. All three directions of development serve as the foundation for a new era of crop breeding where agronomic traits are enhanced by genome design.
