Patterns of Centromere Tandem Repeat Evolution in 282 Animal and Plant Genomes
Two Panicum species (Panicum virgatum (switchgrass) and Panicum capillare (witchgrass) were sequenced with PacBio sequencing technique.
Low coverage whole genome sequencing with Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) technology to identify centromere tandem repeats. Four SMRTcells were used for Panicum virgatum (AP13) and two SMRTcells were used for Panicum capillare. Panicum virgatum was sequenced with the C2 pre-release (beta version) chemistry (10 kbp insert library) and C1 chemistry (2 kbp insert library) and Panicum capillare was sequenced with the C1 chemistry (5 kbp insert library).
