Pacbio sequencing  of Weining rye assembly
Rye is a valuable food and forage crop, an important genetic resource for wheat and triticale improvement, and an indispensable material for efficient comparative genomics studies in grasses. Here, we sequenced the genome of Weining rye, an elite variety cultivated in China. The assembled contigs (7.74 Gb) accounted for 98.47% of the estimated genome size (7.86 Gb), with 93.67% of the contigs (7.25 Gb) assigned to seven chromosomes.
