Abstract:Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is a global source for table sugar and animal fodder. Here we report a highly contiguous and haplotype phased genome assembly and annotation for sugar beet line FC309. Both assembled haplomes for FC309 represent the largest and most contiguous assembled beet genomes reported to date, as well as gene annotations sets that capture over 1500 additional protein-coding loci compared to prior beet genome annotations. These new genomic resources were used to identify novel quantitative t… Show more
