The grape genome is the basis for grape studies and breeding, and is also important for grape industries. In the last two decades, more than 44 grape genomes have been sequenced. Based on these genomes, researchers have made substantial progress in understanding the mechanism of biotic and abiotic resistance, berry quality formation, and breeding strategies. In addition, this work has provided essential data for future pangenome analyses. Apart from de novo assembled genomes, more than six whole-genome sequencing projects have provided datasets comprising almost 5000 accessions. Based on these datasets, researchers have explored the domestication and origins of the grape and clarified the gene flow that occurred during its dispersed history. Moreover, genome-wide association studies and other methods have been used to identify more than 900 genes related to resistance, quality, and developmental phases of grape. These findings have benefited grape studies and provide some basis for smart genomic selection breeding. Moreover, the grape genome has played a great role in grape studies and the grape industry, and the importance of genomics will increase sharply in the future.
