We present the whole genome sequences of 56 wild Erythroxylum species from Africa, China, and the American tropics. Deep Illumina sequencing was performed on a single leaf of each voucher. We de novo assembled sequence reads and then identified and used conserved regions across all preassemblies join contigs in a finishing step. The raw and assembled data is publicly available via Genbank.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
