v.1.0 (15 October 2007): The draft assembly release version 1.0 of whole genome shotgun reads was constructed with Arachne, using paired end sequencing reads at an average coverage of 8.16X. After trimming for vector and quality, the sequencing reads assembled into 51 main genome scaffolds totaling 49.1 MB. Roughly half of the genome is contained in 9 scaffolds all at least 2 Mbp in length.
The draft annotation release version 1.0 (30 April 2008) of the v1.0 assembly was produced by the JGI Annotation Pipeline, using a variety of cDNA/EST-based, homology-based, and ab initio gene predictors. After filtering for EST and homology support, a total of 9,607 genes were structurally and functionally annotated. 80% of the genes have homology support, 52% have Pfam support, and 49% have EST support.
