Project Title

Improvement of the Oryza sativa Nipponbare reference genome using next generation sequence and optical map data

The Background of This Project

  • Rice research has been enabled by access to the high quality reference genome sequence generated in 2005 by the International Rice Genome Sequencing Project (IRGSP). To further facilitate genomic-enabled research, we have updated and validated the genome assembly and sequence for the Nipponbare cultivar of Oryza sativa (japonica group).
