Horticultural fruit tree species have contributed significantly to the recent revolution in genomics, with many fruit and nut crops now sequenced. This review covers current progress in fruit tree whole genome sequencing, describing the state of genome assembly and annotation in grape, apple, pear, date palm, papaya, peach, kiwifruit, banana, Clementine, jujube, mulberry, sweet orange, Chinese plum, macadamia, cocoa, coffee, pineapple, blueberry, hazelnut, raspberry and mango. The availability of these genome assemblies provides fruit biologists with valuable new tools to develop new varieties more efficiently, enabling the implementation of marker-assisted selection and genomic selection, as well as contributing to the understanding of the molecular determinants of key traits unique to horticultural species and giving important clues concerning the evolution of their complex genomes.
