Sequencing DNA from lupin seeds and lupin-containing cookies
Fast and reliable methods are required for the identification of plant origin components from degraded metagenomic samples. DNA from Lupinus albus, Lupinus angustifolius, Lupinus mutabilis seeds and lupin-containing cookies were sequenced to test a k-mer based method for the identification of plant taxa directly from sequencing raw reads of metagenomic samples. Lupinus spp. and Lupinus albus specific k-mers identified from chloroplast genome were detected in whole genome sequencing reads from leaves and seeds of different Lupinus species, but also from cookies containing different amount of lupin flour.
