Project funding
Funding was awarded by the French Research Agency
ANR
and
France Agrime
r to the group led by Catherine Feuillet (Structure, function and evolution of the wheat genomes) at INRA GDEC Clermont Ferrand, France for the complete sequencing of the 1Gb chromosome 3B using a
BAC by BAC approach
and Next Generation Sequencing technologies. The 3BSEQ project is funded for 3 years (2010-2013) and is developed in partnership with the French National Sequencing center
Genoscope
and the INRA bioinformatics unit
URGI
.
Abstract
The objectives of 3BSEQ are to:
- Sequence and annotate the whole chromosome 3B
- Understand its evolutionary dynamics through comparative analyses with the other cereal genomes available
- Functionally characterize the gene space by establishing a transcriptomic map of the chromosome
- Study intraspecific variations of the 3B gene space (Copy Number and Present-Absent Variations)
- Develop useful sequence markers for traits of agronomic importance and for molecular breeding
