摘要：SummaryFlax has been cultivated for its oil and fiber for thousands of years. However, it remains unclear how the modifications of agronomic traits occurred on the genetic level during flax cultivation. In this study, we conducted genome-wide variation analyses on multiple accessions of oil-use, fiber-use, landraces, and pale flax to identify the genomic variations during flax cultivation. Our findings indicate that, during flax domestication, genes relevant to flowering, dehiscence, oil production, and plant architecture were preferentially selected. Furthermore, regardless of origins, the improvement of the modern oil-use flax preceded that of the fiber-use flax, although the dual selection on oil-use and fiber-use characteristics might have occurred in the early flax domestication. We also found that the expansion ofMYB46/MYB83genes may have contributed to the unique secondary cell wall biosynthesis in flax and the directional selections onMYB46/MYB83may have shaped the morphological profile of the current oil-use and fiber-use flax.Graphical AbstractDisplay OmittedHighlights•Assemblies of genomes, including oil-use flax, fiber-use flax and pale flax•Comparative genomic analysis between pale flax and cultivated flax•Dual-selection mode on oil-use and fiber-use characteristics might be existing•Expansion and selection ofMYB46/MYB83may shape the morphological profile of flaxBiological Sciences; Evolutionary Biology; Genomics; Plant Evolution; Plant Genetics
