Distichlis palmeri Genome sequencing and assembly. Distichlis palmeri

Distichlis palmeri is a salt-tolerant grass that could have potential use as a human crop. Currently, there is no published genome for this species. Knowledge of the genome is key for the development of this species for agriculture and for salt-tolerance in other species.帕尔默氏双稃草（Distichlis palmeri）是一种耐盐草本植物，具备作为人类食用作物的应用潜力。目前该物种尚未有公开的基因组序列。基因组信息是该物种农业化开发的核心基础，同时也是向其他物种引入耐盐性状的关键支撑。
