{"doi":"10.1093/nargab/lqae097","title":"High-quality chromosome scale genome assemblies of two important Sorghum inbred lines, Tx2783 and RTx436","abstract":"(L.) Moench is a significant grass crop globally, known for its genetic diversity. High quality genome sequences are needed to capture the diversity. We constructed high-quality, chromosome-level genome assemblies for two vital sorghum inbred lines, Tx2783 and RTx436. Through advanced single-molecule techniques, long-read sequencing and optical maps, we improved average sequence continuity 19-fold and 11-fold higher compared to existing Btx623 v3.0 reference genome and obtained 19 and 18 scaffolds (N50 of 25.6 and 14.4) for Tx2783 and RTx436, respectively. Our gene annotation efforts resulted in 29 612 protein-coding genes for the Tx2783 genome and 29 265 protein-coding genes for the RTx436 genome. Comparative analyses with 26 plant genomes which included 18 sorghum genomes and 8 outgroup species identified around 31 210 protein-coding gene families, with about 13 956 specific to sorghum. Using representative models from gene trees across the 18 sorghum genomes, a total of 72 579 pan-genes were identified, with 14% core, 60% softcore and 26% shell genes. We identified 99 genes in Tx2783 and 107 genes in RTx436 that showed functional enrichment specifically in binding and metabolic processes, as revealed by the GO enrichment Pearson Chi-Square test. We detected 36 potential large inversions in the comparison between the BTx623 Bionano map and the BTx623 v3.1 reference sequence. Strikingly, these inversions were notably absent when comparing Tx2783 or RTx436 with the BTx623 Bionano map. These inversion were mostly in the pericentromeric region which is known to have low complexity regions and harder to assemble and suggests the presence of potential artifacts in the public BTx623 reference assembly. Furthermore, in comparison to Tx2783, RTx436 exhibited 324 883 additional Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and 16 506 more Insertions/Deletions (INDELs) when using BTx623 as the reference genome. We also characterized approximately 348 nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) disease resistance genes in the two genomes. These high-quality genomes serve as valuable resources for discovering agronomic traits and structural variation studies.","journal":"NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics","year":2024,"id":459926,"datarank":0.25266754827121723,"base_score":1.6094379124341003,"endowment":1.6094379124341003,"self_citation_contribution":0.24141568686511508,"citation_network_contribution":0.01125186140610215,"self_endowment_contribution":0.24141568686511508,"citer_contribution":0.01125186140610215,"corpus_percentile":40.41154173435445,"corpus_rank":7704,"citation_count":4,"citer_count":3,"citers_with_citation_signal":1,"citers_with_endowment":1,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":true,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9176,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2024-01-01","fair_score":50.0,"fair_percentile":62.702537450321,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":265734,"name":"Kapeel Chougule","orcid":"0000-0002-1967-4246","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":265732,"name":"Yinping Jiao","orcid":"0000-0002-6016-9639","position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":265730,"name":"Andrew Olson","orcid":"0000-0003-4946-9021","position":3,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":265738,"name":"Vivek Kumar","orcid":"0000-0003-1988-2536","position":4,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":862218,"name":"Nicholas Gladman","orcid":"0000-0002-9000-8377","position":5,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":701021,"name":"Jian Huang","orcid":"0000-0002-5033-9622","position":6,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":489102,"name":"Víctor Llaca","orcid":"0000-0003-4822-2924","position":7,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":615107,"name":"Kevin Fengler","orcid":"0000-0003-0010-2093","position":8,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1286974,"name":"Xuehong Wei","orcid":"0000-0002-4585-3264","position":9,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":620378,"name":"Liya Wang","orcid":"0000-0001-6810-1332","position":10,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1286975,"name":"Xiaofei Wang","orcid":"0000-0002-2922-9824","position":11,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1237997,"name":"Michael Regulski","orcid":null,"position":12,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":11799,"name":"Jörg Drenkow","orcid":null,"position":13,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":11811,"name":"T Gingeras","orcid":"0000-0001-9106-3573","position":14,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":862224,"name":"Chad Hayes","orcid":"0000-0002-6535-4163","position":15,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1286976,"name":"J.

Prefer open genomics / sequencing formats such as FASTQ, BAM or VCF.","Publish the analysis code in a public forge, archive a tagged release with a DOI (Zenodo/Software Heritage), and cite that DOI in the paper. NIH DMS Element 2 asks for the tools and code, not only the data — and 'available on request' is not a locator. Archive the analysis code in a versioned repository (GitHub + a Zenodo release DOI).","Cite the dataset in the reference list like a publication — creator, year, title, repository, DOI/accession — and cite it in-text where it is used. Only a reference- list entry is machine-readable to Crossref/DataCite, and only a citation lets the data earn credit. Cite the genomics / sequencing repository accession (e.g. from GEO (GSE accession), SRA (SRP/SRR) or ENA/BioProject (PRJEB/PRJNA)) in the reference list."],"model":"deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash","agent_version":"fair_agent_v8","fulltext_source":"unpaywall_pdf"},"fair_model":"deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash","fair_agent_version":"fair_agent_v8","fair_fulltext_source":"unpaywall_pdf","fair_has_llm":true,"fair_computed_at":"2026-07-20T13:10:17.278623Z","clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
