De novo assembling 19 maize inbred lines of the European germplasm
Résumé
Background and objectives Characterizing the genomic diversity of maize is critical to understand the molecular origin of structural variation, and is a prerequisite to underpin the functional variation underlying phenotypic variation. Whole genome sequence assemblies at the chromosome scale with low amount of missing data are critical resources for answering such questions. Whole genome sequence assemblies are now available for several maize inbred lines, but this is still missing for a number of key founders used in European maize breeding programs. This concerns the dent genetic pool and the European specific flint genetic group. Therefore, we have established a list of 13 priority lines for de novo sequencing as part of the SeqOccIn project.
