Corylus heterophylla Fisch. is a species of the Betulaceae family native to China. As an economically and ecologically important nut tree, C. heterophylla can survive in extremely low temperatures (-30 to -40 °C). To deepen our knowledge of the Betulaceae species and facilitate the use of C. heterophylla for breeding and its genetic improvement, we have sequenced the whole genome of C. heterophylla.
