Orthology Guided Transcriptome Assembly Of Italian Ryegrass And Meadow Fescue (Update Data Set)

Transcriptome sequencing was performed on ten samples (corresponding to six genotypes) of <em>Festuca pratensis</em> and ten samples (corresponding to six genotypes) of <em>Lolium multiflorum</em> and fourteen samples of<em> Lolium perenne</em> (corresponding to fourteen genotypes). Using the OGA approach, 18,952 non-redundant <em>F. pratensis</em> transcripts were assembled by combining the contigs of all six genotypes based on orthology with the <em>Brachypodium distachyon </em>proteome. Similarly, <em>19,036</em> non-redundant<em> L. multiflorum</em> transcripts were assembled and annotated. In total, 17,455 orthologous transcripts were shared between the transcriptomes of the two species. Out of these, 16,613 orthologous transcripts overlap with the previously published<em> L. perenne</em> transcriptome containing 19,279 non-redundant transcripts(fasta files). We identified SNPs, the following criteria were used to classify it as one of following three classes (1) intraspecific SNPs (INTRA), (2) interspecific SNPs in two-way comparison (INTER-2W) and (3) interspecific SNPs in three-way comparison (INTER-3W) (GFF files).
