Abstract
Current advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology and assembling programs permit construct chromosome-level genome assemblies in various plants. In contrast to resequencing, the genome sequences provide comprehensive annotation data useful for plant genetics and breeding. Herein, we constructed a reference-based genome assembly of winter barley (H. vulgare ssp. vulgare) cv. 'Hayakiso 2' using long and short read NGS data and barley reference genome sequences from 'Morex'. We constructed 'Hayakiso 2' genome sequences covering 4.3 Gbp with 55,477 genes. Comparative genomics revealed that 14,106 genes had orthologs to two barley data, wheat (A, B, and D homoeologs, respectively), and rice. From the gene ontology analysis, 2,494 orthologs against wheat and rice but not two barley contained agricultural important genes, such as 'response to biotic and abiotic stress' and 'metabolic process'. Phylogenetic analysis using 76 pangenome data indicated that 'Hayakiso 2' was clustered into Japanese-type genomes with unique alleles. 'Hayakiso 2' genome sequences showed known genes related to flowering and facilitated barley breeding through the development of various markers related to agronomically important alleles such as tolerance to various types of biotic and abiotic stress. Therefore, 'Hayakiso 2' genome sequences will be used for the further barley breeding.
期刊介绍:
DNA Research is an internationally peer-reviewed journal which aims at publishing papers of highest quality in broad aspects of DNA and genome-related research. Emphasis will be made on the following subjects: 1) Sequencing and characterization of genomes/important genomic regions, 2) Comprehensive analysis of the functions of genes, gene families and genomes, 3) Techniques and equipments useful for structural and functional analysis of genes, gene families and genomes, 4) Computer algorithms and/or their applications relevant to structural and functional analysis of genes and genomes. The journal also welcomes novel findings in other scientific disciplines related to genomes.
