  • Blueberry Pangenomics and CiFi Assembly for Complex Polyploid Genomes

    By: Kendall Lee, PhD

    What you will Learn:

    Identify breeding markers that short-read sequencing misses. In this presentation from the Plant and Animal Genome (PAG) Conference, learn how long-read low-pass (LRLP) sequencing and CiFi-adapted scaffolding are solving two major challenges in polyploid crop genomics.

    — Apply long-read low-pass sequencing for cost-effective genotyping in polyploid crops

    — Build a pangenome reference using KhufuPAN and reference-based scaffolding

    — Use CiFi to rescue difficult genome assemblies where standard Hi-C fails

    — Identify QTLs for phenological traits using the QTLVar pipeline
