Preliminary Soybean Genome Released
The U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) has released a preliminary assembly and annotation of the soybean genome to the greater scientific community to enable bioenergy research.
The current assembly (representing 7.23x coverage), gene, set, and browser are collectively referred to as "Glyma0". Glyma0 is a preliminary release, based on a partial dataset. This is expected to be replaced with an improved, chromosome-scale "Glyma1" version by the end of 2008. Early users of this data are encouraged to track their favorite genes by saving local copies of the DNA sequences of these loci, and not by identifier or sequence coordinate, as these will change in future versions.
