454 pyrosequencing of the Triticum aestivum (bread wheat) genome to 5X coverage. Triticum aestivum cv. Chinese spring study

The data set represents one of the outputs of the BBSRC funded grant “Mining the allohexaploid wheat genome for useful sequence polymorphisms”. The grant is led by Prof. Keith Edwards (University of Bristol) and is a collaboration between Prof. Neil Hall and Dr. Anthony Hall (University of Liverpool), Dr. Gary Barker (University of Bristol) and Prof. Mike Bevan (John Innes Centre) (BB/G013004/1, BB/G012865/1). The sequencing was done by Dr. Rosalinda D’Amore and informatics by Dr. Rachel Brenchley.
