Daucus carota vT2T Genome; Chromosome level assembly

In this study, we assembled a 430.40 Mb high-quality gapless genome to the telomere-to-telomere (T2T) level of ‘Kurodagosun’ carrot. In total, 36,268 genes were identified and 34,961 of them were functionally annotated. The proportion of repeat sequences in the genome was 55.3 %, mainly long terminal repeats (LTRs). Depending on the coverage of the repeats, 14 telomeres and 9 centromeric regions on the chromosomes were predicted.

Sequencing technology Oxford Nanopore PromethION; DNBSEQ-T7; PacBio.
