Table_1_A de novo chromosome-scale assembly of the Lablab purpureus genome.xlsx
IntroductionLablab (Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet), an underutilized tropical legume crop, plays a crucial role in global food and nutritional security. To enhance our understanding of its genetic makeup towards developing elite cultivars, we sequenced and assembled a draft genome of L. purpureus accession PK2022T020 using a single tube long fragment read (stLFR) technique.Results and discussionThe preliminary assembly encompassed 367 Mb with a scaffold N50 of 4.3 Mb. To improve the contiguity of our draft genome, we employed a chromatin contact mapping (Hi-C) approach to obtain a pseudochromosome-level assembly containing 366 Mb with an N50 length of 31.1 Mb. A total of 327.4 Mb had successfully been anchored into 11 pseudomolecules, corresponding to the haploid chromosome number in lablab. Our gene prediction recovered 98.4% of the highly conserved orthologs based on the Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs (BUSCO) analysis. Comparative analyses utilizing sequence information from single-copy orthologous genes demonstrated that L. purpureus diverged from the last common ancestor of the Phaseolus/Vigna species approximately 27.7 million years ago. A gene family expansion analysis revealed a significant expansion of genes involved in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Our high-quality chromosome-scale reference assembly provides an invaluable genomic resource for lablab genetic improvement and future comparative genomics studies among legume species.</p

Large-Scale SNP Discovery through RNA Sequencing and SNP Genotyping by Targeted Enrichment Sequencing in Cassava (<i>Manihot esculenta</i> Crantz)
<div><p>Cassava (<i>Manihot esculenta</i> Crantz) is one of the most important crop species being the main source of dietary energy in several countries. Marker-assisted selection has become an essential tool in plant breeding. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discovery via transcriptome sequencing is an attractive strategy for genome complexity reduction in organisms with large genomes. We sequenced the transcriptome of 16 cassava accessions using the Illumina HiSeq platform and identified 675,559 EST-derived SNP markers. A subset of those markers was subsequently genotyped by capture-based targeted enrichment sequencing in 100 F<sub>1</sub> progeny segregating for starch viscosity phenotypes. A total of 2,110 non-redundant SNP markers were used to construct a genetic map. This map encompasses 1,785 cM and consists of 19 linkage groups. A major quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling starch pasting properties was identified and shown to coincide with the QTL previously reported for this trait. With a high-density SNP-based linkage map presented here, we also uncovered a novel QTL associated with starch pasting time on LG 10.</p></div
