Chromosome-length genome assembly

Download the araIpa.scaf_HiC.fasta.gz file containing the chromosome-length (2n=20) assembly of the wild peanut genome. All modifications with respect to the draft (see below) are annotated in the araIpa.scaf_HiC.assembly file. Some basic stats associated with the new reference, araIpa.scaf_HiC, are listed below. The full data release can be explored here.

The genome sequences of Arachis duranensis and Arachis ipaensis, the diploid ancestors of cultivated peanut. Nat. Genet. 48, 438-446. https://doi.org/10.1038/ng.3517.

Method

3D Assembly was performed using 3D-DNA pipeline (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The genome was reviewed using Juicebox Assembly Tools  (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018). See Methods for more information.

Hi-C sample

The leaves k30076 sample for in situ Hi-C preparation was obtained from Hui Wang, Baozhu Guo (USDA-Agricultural Research Service), Rajeev Varshney (ICRISAT).

Hi-C Contact maps

Hi-C data was aligned to the draft reference using Juicer (Durand, Shamim et al., Cell Systems, 2016), and contact maps visualizing the alignments with respect to the draft and the new reference were built using 3D-DNA (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The contact maps can be explored below via Juicebox.js interactive tool (Robinson et al., Cell Systems, 2018). To explore the assembly in greater detail, please download the .hic and .assembly files from the data release folder and use Juicebox Assembly Tools  (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018).
