Improved Genome Sequence of Wild Emmer Wheat Zavitan with the Aid of Optical Maps

Improved Genome Sequence of Wild Emmer Wheat Zavitan with the Aid of Optical Maps

Wild emmer (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides) is the progenitor of all modern cultivated tetraploid wheat. Its genome is large (> 10 Gb) and contains over 80% repeated sequences. The successful whole-genome-shotgun assembly of the wild emmer (accession Zavitan) genome sequence (WEW_v1.0) was an...
