BOTANIC-1: a series of long-context plant genomic foundation models in the agentic era
The Botanic1 family of gLMs designed for plant research is presented, which operates reliably on sequences from hundreds of base pairs up to 128 kbp, and integrates Botanic1 as a specialised genomic layer callable by a generalist large language model (LLM) agent, illustrating how such hybrid systems could accelerate pl...
