Genome Annotation and Assembly

22.3K
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

17.1K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

12.7K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Genomics

Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Science
  • Genomics
  • Plant Biology

Background:

  • Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis var. angularis) is a significant legume crop in East Asia.
  • Its presumed progenitor, Vigna angularis var. nipponensis, is widespread in East Asia, indicating domestication in temperate regions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a draft genome sequence of the adzuki bean.
  • To analyze genetic variations between cultivated and wild adzuki bean.
  • To facilitate genomics-assisted breeding for adzuki bean.

Main Methods:

  • Genome sequencing and assembly of adzuki bean.
  • Gene prediction using RNA sequencing data from various tissues.
  • Comparative gene expression analysis with Vigna radiata.
  • Whole-genome re-sequencing of wild relatives (V. angularis var. nipponensis, V. nepalensis).

Main Results:

  • A draft genome assembly covering 75% of the estimated genome, mapped to 11 pseudo-chromosomes.
  • Prediction of 26,857 high-confidence protein-coding genes.
  • High conservation of tissue-specific expression in orthologous genes between adzuki bean and V. radiata.
  • Divergence time analysis indicating that the split between adzuki bean and wild species predates archaeological evidence of domestication.

Conclusions:

  • The adzuki bean genome assembly is a valuable resource for future research.
  • Understanding genetic variations aids in elucidating domestication history.
  • This genome sequence will accelerate the development of improved adzuki bean varieties through genomics-assisted breeding.
