- Abstract
The Acer truncatum Bunge is a particular forest tree species found in the north of China. Due to the recent discovery that its seeds contain a considerable amount of nervonic acid, this species has received more and more attention. However, there have been no reports of the genome in this species. In this study, we report on the Acer truncatum genome sequence produced by genome survey sequencing. In total, we obtained 61.90 Gbp of high-quality data, representing approximately 116x coverage of the Acer truncatum genome. The genomic characteristics of Acer truncatum include a genome size of 529.88 Mbp, a heterozygosis rate of 1.06% and a repeat rate of 48.8%. A total of 392,961 high-quality genomic SSR markers were developed and a graphical map of the annotated circular chloroplast genome was generated. Thus far, this is the first report of de novo whole genome sequencing and assembly of Acer truncatum. We believe that this genome sequence dataset may provide a new resource for future genomic analysis and molecular breeding studies of Acer truncatum.
