v.1.0 (November 2, 2006): The assembly release version 1.0 of whole genome shotgun reads was constructed with the JGI assembler, Jazz, using paired end sequencing reads at a coverage of 8.9X. After trimming for vector and quality, 491,294 reads assembled into 129 scaffolds totaling 41.2 MB. Roughly half of the genome is contained in 6 scaffolds all at least 2.4 MB in length.

The current draft release, version 1.0, includes a total of 11,395 gene models predicted and functionally annotated using the JGI annotation pipeline.
