Large genome assembly Research Spotlight

Literature

Date: 22nd July 2019

Nanopore long sequencing reads simplify genome assembly and enable the comprehensive, genome-wide analysis of structural variants.

Schatz et al. sequenced 100 tomato genomes in 100 days, using the high-throughput PromethION™, to elucidate the role of structural variation in the development of key agricultural and phenotypic traits. This research provided a thorough characterisation of the structural variant (SV) landscape in a genetically diverse range of tomato genomes. Such insight offers the potential to enrich for desired agricultural traits using targeted genome editing.
