Whole genome sequencing of Japanese moso bamboo seedlings

Our goal is to characterize the genome sequence in seedling moso bamboo. In Kyoto, Japan, a moso bamboo flowered in 1954 and its seedlings were cultivated at the Fuji Bamboo Botanical Garden. In 2021, moso bamboo grown from the seedlings flowered at the Fuji Bamboo Garden (Kobayashi et al. 2022). Whole genome resequencing was performed on 8 germinated seedlings in 2022.

本研究旨在解析毛竹（moso bamboo）实生苗的基因组序列特征。1954年，日本京都的一株毛竹开花，其种子繁育的实生苗被栽植于富士竹类植物园（Fuji Bamboo Botanical Garden）。2021年，由该批实生苗培育得到的毛竹于富士竹类植物园（Fuji Bamboo Garden）开花（Kobayashi等，2022）。2022年，研究团队对8株萌发的实生苗开展了全基因组重测序。
