A highly contiguous, scaffold-level nuclear genome assembly for the fever tree (Cinchona pubescens Vahl) as a novel resource for Rubiaceae research

Using hybrid genomic (live generated at the Nanopore Conference 2019) and RNA-seq data, we assembled and annotated the plastid and nuclear genome of the Andean fever tree (Cinchona pubescens).

Reconnecting the Cinchona (Rubiaceae) collections of La Real Expedición Botánica al Virreinato del Perú (1777‑1816)

We uncovered a complex web of purchasing and reconnected Cinchona collections between Madrid and London by analysing 18-19th century archives at Real Jardín Botánico, Madrid.

Historical chemical annotations of Cinchona bark collections are comparable to results from current-day high‑pressure liquid chromatography technologies

We found the content of quinine-like alkaloids from historical Cinchona barks were stable over time by comparing historical chemical annotations to HPLC estimations.
