Abstract excerpt
AIM: The complex genome of a Japanese radish (Raphanus sativus) cultivar named 'Okute-Sakurajima' with an extremely large edible round root was analysed to explore its genomic characteristics. METHODS AND RESULTS: Single-molecule real-time technology was used to obtain long sequence reads to cover 60× of the genome. De novo assembly generated 504.5 Mb contigs consisting of 1,437 sequences with the N50 value of...
