Genome Sequence Of The Olive Tree Olea Europaea
Genome re sequencing which is more cost effective than de novo sequencing will help us in elucidating the past of the olive tree from the early history of domestication by comparing several subspecies of wild relatives to the origin of the different varieties studying genetic makeup and uncovering regions subject to strong selection.
Genome sequence of the olive tree olea europaea. The line corresponding to olive tree seems correct except that i suspect the average coding sequence length is 1031 nt not aa. Farga were generated by illumina sequencing using different combinations of mate pair and pair end libraries. The mediterranean olive tree olea europaea subsp. The sequencing of the genome of fraxinus excelsior and the second genome of olea europaea var.
Both wild and cultivated olive trees have 46 chromosomes 2n. The wild olive tree genome was shotgun sequenced 220 coverage generating 515 7 gbp of data si appendix table s1. A total of 543 gb of raw dna sequence from whole genome shotgun sequencing and a fosmid library containing 155 000 clones from a 1 000 year old olive tree cv. Farga were generated by illumina sequencing using different combinations of mate pair and pair end libraries.
A total of 543 gb of raw dna sequence from whole genome shotgun sequencing and a fosmid library containing 155 000 clones from a 1 000 year old olive tree cv. Sequencing the olive tree genome will allow to better understand this crop to accelerate flowering the olive tree may take years to blossom increase production of leaves olives and olive oil and fight the diseases and pests associated with this crop like infections with fungi verticillium dahliae and spilocaea oleagina and bacteria pseudomonas savastanoi. Abstract europe pmc abstract. Olive tree genome genomics assembly annotation data description sequencing genomic dna was extracted from leaf tissue of a single mediterranean olive tree olea europaea l.
The average coding sequence length is expected around 400 aa the average exon size around 250 350 nt and the transcript span around 2kb. But the lines corresponding to the other species are wrong. Findings a total of 543 gb of raw dna sequence from whole genome shotgun sequencing and a fosmid library containing 155 000 clones. Europaea was one of the first trees to be domesticated and is currently of major agricultural.
