Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.; family Pedaliaceae; order
Lamiales) is an ancient and important oilseed crop grown widely in
tropical and subtropical areas. Using next generation sequencing, we
assembled the whole genome sequence of sesame, and analyzed its
evolutionary history and important characteristics. In this project, whole-genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing
strategy, based on paired short reads generated by second-generation
Illumina GA sequencing technology, was used to assemble the draft
genome of Sesamum indicum.
We assembled 274 Mb (77.4% of the estimated genome) of the sesame
genome and annotated 27,148 genes. Using a newly constructed genetic
map, 150 larger scaffolds were anchored to 16 pseudomolecules,
representing 85.3% of the assembly in size and 91.7% of the
predicted genes. |
