Heterodera glycines isolate:X12 Genome sequencing
PacBio sequencing and Hi-C were applied to assemble the genome of the newly reported SCN race X12. The sequence information provided in this study combined with other published nematode genomes will permit future comparative genomic approaches to study fundamental nematode biology, gene function, nematode parasitism and evolution. Plant-parasitic nematodes are among the most damaging and difficult-to-control agricultural pests in the world. These genome sequences will help science meet the current and future worldwide demands for food and bioenergy by providing powerful information for the development of new control paradigms and minimizing crop losses.
