摘要:

甜樱桃(Prunus avium)是温带地区的重要核果树种之一。自第一个甜樱桃基因组发布以来,甜樱桃的分子育种取得了重大进展。已发表甜樱桃的基因组中存在的缺口较多,且嵌合序列无法区分单倍型等位基因信息,大大限制了对一些重要农艺性状的遗传研究。在本研究中,我们获得了甜樱桃“美早”单倍型解析端粒到端粒的参考基因组。在“美早”两个单倍型基因组中共有653.03 Mb的序列挂载到16个染色体,共预测了67,012个编码基因,其中,在hapA中包含33,777个基因,hapB中包含33,235个基因。该基因组的单碱基准确率的质量值超过44,conting N50超过17.94 Mb,有胚植物单拷贝同源基因基集(BUSCO)完整性达到98.7%,长末端重复序列组装指数(LAI)超过20,达到了金标准的水平。该基因组提供了单倍型解析的染色体组,全面解析了甜樱桃杂合二倍体基因组的结构差异。此外,利用该参考基因组,我们鉴定了与甜樱桃“13-33”黄色果皮性状相关的一个大片段缺失。期望该基因组能够为甜樱桃育种工作和遗传学研究的提供帮助。

Abstract:

Sweet cherry (Prunus avium) represents a significant stone fruit crop in temperate regions worldwide.  While molecular breeding has progressed substantially following the initial sweet cherry genome release, existing genome assemblies contain unresolved gaps and comprise consensus chimeric sequences that fail to differentiate haplotype alleles, significantly constraining research on important agronomic trait inheritance.  This study presents a phased-resolved telomere-to-telomere reference genome of sweet cherry ‘Tieton’.  The assembly anchors 653.03 Mb of sequence onto 16 pseudochromosomes representing two haplotypes, with 67,012 coding genes identified (33,777 in hapA and 33,235 in hapB).  The genome demonstrates superior quality metrics, including a consensus accuracy exceeding QV44, contig N50 above 17.94 Mb, Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs completeness of 98.7%, and a long terminal repeat (LTR) assembly index exceeding 20.  This genome provides phased and annotated chromosome pairs, offering a comprehensive view of sweet cherry’s diploid genome organization.  Utilizing this reference genome, we identified a large fragment deletion associated with yellow-skinned fruit in sweet cherry ‘13-33’.  This resource will significantly enhance breeding efforts and genetic research in sweet cherries.
