    P5-build genome assembly

    Im having troubles understanding what a P5-build genome assembly or a fifth genome build means. Could anyone clarify this for me?
    In general Im not really understanding well this whole thing:

    The combined total length of the assembly (a fifth genome build or P5-build) is 1.535 Gb. Comparison of the P5-build to genetic linkage maps (Supplementary Fig. 4 and Methods) resulted in 16 genetic scaffolds (one per chromosome; 43% of the P5 scaffold assembly) for a final total of 40,072 scaffolds with an N50 (the scaffold size above which 50% of the total length of the sequence assembly can be found) of 1.27 megabases (Mb) (Supplemen- tary Table 4) and 74% of RefSeq supported genes.

    Anything anyone can recommend to read?
    Thanks,
    Tatiana

    I would say that "P5" is just the version number of the palm genome. The initial draft genome was probably P1. Including sequences from BAC libraries may have resulted in the second version of the genome assembly (P2), including linkage map info resulted in P3, etc.

      Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
      by seqadmin




      The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...

      New Genomics Tools and Methods Shared at AGBT 2025
      by seqadmin


      This year’s Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) General Meeting commemorated the 25th anniversary of the event at its original venue on Marco Island, Florida. While this year’s event didn’t include high-profile musical performances, the industry announcements and cutting-edge research still drew the attention of leading scientists.

      The Headliner
      The biggest announcement was Roche stepping back into the sequencing platform market. In the years since...
