Draft genome of Camelina Sativa. Camelina sativa

Draft genome sequence assembly of Camelina Sativa. Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz is a polyploid, stress-tolerant oil seed species in the Brassicaeae family of interest for expanding the range of biofuels production. To provide a platform for research, we produced a draft genome for the Camelina sativa USDA NPGS seed accession PI 650140 ("CAME"), consisting of 15,946 scaffolds covering 548 Mb (70% of the predicted genome size of 788.6 Mb), with 84,458 predicted and annotated genes. This project was a collaboration of researchers at Chonnam National University, Seoul National University, and Pennsylvania State University.
