Assembly of Triticum aestivum cv. 'Norin61' as part of the 10+ Wheat Genomes Project.. 10wheat_assembly_norin61

The 10+ Wheat Genome Project has completed its goal of generating chromosome pseudomolecule assemblies for 10 wheat cultivars and 5 scaffold assemblies. These cultivars were selected by each of the global partners to represent genetic diversity typical of breeding programs in their agroecological zones. The genome assembly of cultivar 'Norin61' is part of and has been submitted on behalf of the 10+ wheat genomes project. This genome sequence has been assembled to reference quality using the NRgene DeNovo Magic 3.0 software. Origin of Pedigree Fukuoka komugi 18/Shinchunaga was Japan with growth habitat spring (facultative). The following persons significantly contributed to the genome assembly process: Kentaro K. Shimizu (PI), Hirokazu Handa, Shuhei Nasuda, Jun Sese, Kanako Kawaura, Hiroyuki Tsuji, Toshiaki Tameshige, Tomohiro Ban, Dario Copetti, Masaomi Hatakeyama, Rie Shimizu-Inatsugi, Catharine Aquino, Fuminori Kobayashi, Juan Gutierrez-Gonzalez and Nils Stein.
