Abstract/Contents:"Turfgrass research into functional traits has been hampered by the complexity of turfgrass genetic systems such as polyploidy, self-incompatibility, and large genome sizes. To help overcome these challenges, completion of high-quality reference genome sequences provide an ability to accurately identify genes and genetic mechanisms affecting traits of interest. To this end, the USDA-ARS Turfgrass Consortium has initiated the sequencing and assembly of at least nine cool- and warm-season turfgrass genomes: annual bluegrass (Poa annua), perennial ryegrass(Lolium perenne), annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera), colonial bentgrass(Agrostis capillaris), triploid bermudagrass (Cynodontransvaalensis x C. dactylon), centipedegrass (Eremochloaophiuroides), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea), and povertygrass (Danthonia spicata). We have targeted at least 40x PacBio HiFi coverage, assembly using HiCanu and Hifiasm, annotation using full-length cDNAs, and scaffolding using HiCcontact sequencing. All but the last two genomes have been fully sequenced and scaffolded, and data is freely available upon request. Early applications include the improvement of mapping of genotyping-by-sequencing and transcriptome analyses. Preliminary analysis of tetraploid Poa annua was able to separate scaffolds and their corresponding genes into the appropriate P. supina and P. infirma subgenomes. Preliminary analysis of perennial and annual ryegrasses found and sorted vernalization genes with potential to identify interspecific crosses between those two species."
