Sb bicolor PI510757 AP79-714 Assembly and Gene Annotation

About PI 510757

PI 510757 is a durra-type sorghum that originated in Cameroon, even though most durra-types are historically from the Indian subcontinent. It is known to produce high levels of cellulosic biomass, and was selected as one of the parental lines in the CP-NAM population (Boatwright et al. 2021). It is also known by the ID number AP79-714.

Germplasm synonyms: * GRIN: PI 510757 * Cultivar: AP79-714

Population panels: * Sorghum Bioenergy Association Panel (BAP) - 386 accessions (Brenton et al, 2016) * CP-NAM - 12 accessions (Boatwright et al, 2021; Boatwright et al, 2022; Kumar et al, 2022)

Assembly

The preliminary assembly was constructed using Canu and 24x coverage Pacbio long read data and then aligned to the reference (BTx623) using MUMmer (Voelker et al, 2022). Contigs were sorted using coordinate data from MUMmer and code developed by the Cooper Lab at UNCC (https://github.com/cponce-uncc/bioinformatics_tools). Contigs under 50k base pairs were discarded, as were contigs that were manually determined to not clearly map to a position after sorting. Final assembly statistics are as follows:

Final Contig Count: 3113

Final Base Pair Count: 535504222

Percent Coverage of Reference: 73.357%

Annotation

Gene annotations were built by the Ware Lab in CSHL using a pan-gene index from reference gene models and propagated to representative assemblies using the Liftoff tool and further updating their structure using PASA tool (Voelker et al, 2022).
