PCR amplifications of both breakpoint regions further validated this inversion (see Experimental procedures; Figure S11). The GC content in coding exons was higher than in introns plus UTRs (40.82% versus 24.27%, respectively). TJC, StL, QL and MMA developed the revised chromosome numbering for cowpea. Large chromosomal inversion detected on Vu03. The threshold on the PI detector was set to channel 40 and no other gating strategy was applied. Table S3. Similar to other mammals, the females all have two of the X chromosomes, and males have a single Y and X chromosome. Sources of CPA resistance are available in African cowpea germplasm. All 11 had a median or submedian centromere. Table 1 Genetic and physical positions of the cowpea BAC clones and rDNA on pachytene chromosomes Linkage group Entire linkage group length (cM) BAC clone SNP markers Genetic position (cM)a Relative genetic positionb Physical locationc n 1 … An estimate of nuclear genome size of 640.6 Mbp based on cytometry is presented. CLARK and CLARK‐S are classification tools that use discriminative (spaced, in the case CLARK‐S) k‐mers to quickly determine the most likely origin of each input sequence (k = 21 and k = 31). Improvement includes adding UTRs, splicing correction and adding alternative transcripts. Genome-Wide Association Study for Flowering Time in Korean Cowpea Germplasm. Walp.) These families include 14 legume species, six of which are from the Phaseoleae tribe (soybean, common bean, adzuki bean, mung bean, pigeon pea and cowpea). The genome sequence facilitated the identification of a putative syntelog for multiple organ gigantism in legumes. ( Vigna unguiculata ) Cowpea is a food and animal feed crop grown in the semi-arid tropics covering Africa, Asia, Europe, United States and Central and South America. Chromomeres were not distributed uniformly along the arms. unguiculata (L.) Walp.Cowpea is often called "black-eyed pea" due to its black- or brown-ringed hylum. Computational identification of receptor-like kinases “RLK” and receptor-like proteins “RLP” in legumes. AHS and JT annotated and analyzed repeats. Chromosome numbers indicate that Cryptanthus, Hoplocrytanthus and Rokautskyia are predominantly diploid, with the prevalence of 2n = 34 (reported here for seven of the ten analysed species listed in Table 1 and five additional species listed in Table S1). Landrace Through Whole-Plant Field Phenotyping and Non-stop Selection to Sustain Increased Genetic Gain Across a Decade. Syntenic regions in the common bean genome were identified, the largest of which is located on common bean chromosome 8 (Pv08). Figure S6. This suggests that the reference genome orientation of this region is rare among landraces and that its frequency has been increased among breeding lines. Only the wild cowpea accession did not yield an amplification product for either of the breakpoints, possibly due to sequence variation within the breakpoint regions. First, CLARK and CLARK‐S (Ounit and Lonardi, 2016) were used to identify possible contamination from unknown organisms. Reference (see below) Adder's tongue fern : Ophioglossum vulgatum: ... Cowpea : Vigna unguiculata : 22: 3 Crocus : Developing the role of legumes in West Africa under climate change. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) The intersection of these two lists contained only a single gene, Phvul.008G285800, a P. vulgaris candidate gene for increased seed size that corresponds to cowpea Vigun08 g217000. As the cytometry analysis indicates, a genome size of 640.6 Mbp was used. Family membership was evaluated relative to median HMM bitscores for each family, with sequences scoring less than 40% of the median HMM bitscore for the family being removed. For each species pair, histograms of Ks frequencies were the basis for choosing per‐species Ks cutoffs for that species pair.

This can result from either differential amplification recently, or differential retention of ancient insertions. A surprising outcome is the identification of an inversion of 4.2 Mb among landraces and cultivars, which includes a gene that has been associated in other plants with interactions with the parasitic weed Striga gesnerioides. The original PacBio reads were also mapped onto the assembly using BLASR using default settings: 5.29 M long reads mapped for a total of about 46 × 109 bp; 88.68% of the bases of the long reads were present in the 519 Mbp assembly. Eight draft assemblies were generated, six of which were produced with canu v1.3 (Berlin et al., 2015; Koren et al., 2017), one with Falcon v0.7.3 (Chin et al., 2016) and one with Abruijn v0.4 (Lin et al., 2016). Our data showed that cowpea has highly distinct … The genome assembly of asparagus bean, Vigna unguiculata ssp. A series of checks are carried out before and after the stitching to minimize the possibility of creating mis‐joins. Figure S2. In general, SNP density was lowest near centromeric regions (Figures 1 and S9). Cscore is a protein BLASTP score ratio to MBH (mutual best hit) BLASTP score, and protein coverage is the highest percentage of protein aligned to the best homolog. Figure S8. Comparative repeat abundance in Vigna species. Only 46 Mb (8.9% of the total assembly) were unplaced. The number of annotated cowpea gene models containing a SNP was 23 266 (78% of total) or 27 021 (91% of total) when considering genes within 10 kb of a SNP (Table S8). (2017). Cowpea chromosome structure 199. Primer sequences used to validate the Vu03 inversion. Image credit: Ton Rulkens / CC BY-SA 2.0. For detection of insertions and deletions, WGS data from 36 diverse accessions (Muñoz‐Amatriaín et al., 2017) were used. 2011; Muñoz-Amatriaín et al. Heat stress and cowpea: genetics, breeding and modern tools for improving genetic gains. Briefly, suspensions of cell nuclei were prepared from 50 mg of young leaf tissue of cowpea IT97K‐499‐35, and of Solanum lycopersicum cv. We used molecular cytogenetics to characterize the structure of pachytene chromosomes to advance our knowledge of chromosome and genome organization of cowpea. (2016) was BLASTed against cowpea pseudochromosomes to identify approximate start and end positions of cowpea centromeres. Black‐list genomes included possible contaminants, whereas white‐listed genomes included organisms evolutionarily close to cowpea. Data S1 provides the polynomial formulae for each pseudochromosome. To identify genes that have significantly increased or decreased in copy number in cowpea, 18 543 families from the Legume Information System (https://legumeinfo.org/search/phylotree and https://legumeinfo.org/data/public/Gene_families/) were analyzed. Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture (PCTOC). unguiculata, biflora, sesquipedalis, and textilis. The cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an annual herbaceous legume from the genus Vigna.Due to its tolerance for sandy soil and low rainfall, it is an important crop in the semiarid regions across Africa and Asia. Similarly, the longest contig for the stitched assembly increased by 4 Mb over the longest contig of any single assembly. Crop domestication typically involved size increases of specific organs harvested by humans (Doebley et al., 2006). Current advances and future directions in genetic enhancement of a climate resilient food legume crop, cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Figure S5. Reference (see below) Advances in legume research in the genomics era. A comparative study on nutritive peculiarities of 24 Chinese cowpea cultivars. One meter length of cowpea row was taken with 1 meter ruler. Figure S2 shows the frequency distribution of 27‐mers produced with KAT (https://github.com/TGAC/KAT). For instance, the N50 for the stitched assembly (10.9 Mb) was almost double the highest N50 for any of the eight individual assemblies. Number pods per plant were determined following the method of Egho (2009). The analysis of gene families was provided through in‐kind contributions from the USDA Agricultural Research Service, project 5030‐21000‐069‐00‐D, while the repetitive elements analysis was supported by the Academy of Finland ‘Papugeno’ (Decision 298314). Here, we re‐estimated the genome size of V. unguiculata and produced a genome assembly using single‐molecule real‐time sequencing combined with optical and genetic mapping. Hence, cowpea pseudochromosomes and all genetic maps were inverted for chromosomes Vu06, Vu10 and Vu11 to meet the convention of short arm on top and long arm on the bottom, corresponding to ascending cM values from the distal (telomeric) end of the short arm through the centromere and on to the distal end of the long arm. These patterns have been observed in other plant genomes including legumes (Schmutz et al., 2010, 2014), and have important implications for genetic studies and plant breeding. Stupické polní rané as an internal standard. Two primer pairs were designed for each breakpoint region: one to amplify the reference orientation and another to amplify the opposite orientation (Table S10).

Other considerations are the types of sex chromosomes, lethal genes, and polyploidy. Although these resources enabled progress on cowpea genetics (Yao et al., 2016; Carvalho et al., 2017; Misra et al., 2017; Huynh et al., 2018; Lo et al., 2018), they lacked the contiguity and completeness required for accurate genome annotation, detailed investigation of candidate genes or thorough genome comparisons. The HMMs were then recalculated from families (without low‐scoring outliers), and used as targets for HMM search of all sequences in the proteome sets, including those omitted during the initial Ks filtering. Details of the 10 genetic maps can be found in Table S4. All of the chromosomes are teardrop-shaped and have the centromere at the end, except the sex chromosomes, that feature the centromere more towards the middle of the chromosome. Cowpea plants are also We used molecular cytogenetics to characterize the structure of pachytene chromosomes to advance our knowledge of chromosome and genome organization of cowpea. Introgression Breeding in Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.]. Also, a complete lack of recombination across this region is reflected in the genetic map derived from a cultivated × wild cross (Lo et al., 2018; IT99K‐573‐1‐1 × TVNu‐1158; Figure S10), which indicates that the wild parent has the opposite orientation of the cultivated accession. A comparative analysis of these elements suggests that genome size differences between Vigna species are mainly attributable to changes in the amount of Gypsy retrotransposons. QL performed synteny analyses, identified cowpea centromeres, and generated a visualization of the distribution of genes, repeats and genetic variation across the genome. For each of those cases, the number of the common bean chromosome sharing the largest syntenic region with cowpea was adopted, with one exception: two cowpea chromosomes (previous linkage groups/chromosomes #1 and #5) both shared their largest block of synteny with P. vulgaris chromosome Pv08. ALLMAPS was able to anchor 47 of the 74 scaffolds for a total of 473.4 Mb (91.1% of the assembled sequences), 30 of which were also oriented, resulting in 449 Mb of anchored and oriented sequence (Table 1). While the assemblies represent similar shares of the estimated genomes (Vu, 81.1%; Pv, 80.5%), the contig N50 for P. vulgaris is 0.395 Mb versus 10.9 Mb for Vu. In Pv, the Gypsy elements comprise 25% of the genome versus 18% in V. unguiculata, although the Copia elements are 2% less abundant than in cowpea. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This genomic region and flanking markers associated with RKN resistance within this region are important resources for introgressing this resistance into elite cowpea cultivars. RNA-seq-based expression atlas TZ and MCL generated the optical maps. (2007). The cowpea syntelog of that gene is Vigun08 g217000, according to the genomic segment alignment provided by the GCV using the gene family assignments described above. De tegenhanger van het X-chromosoom is het Y-chromosoom.Wanneer iemand één X-chromosoom en één Y-chromosoom heeft (dit wordt vaak weergegeven met 46,XY), is hij van het mannelijk geslacht. The R function predict was used to create the raster objects, and the R function polynomial yielded the polynomial coefficients. SS generated gene annotations. The cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an annual herbaceous legume from the genus Vigna.Due to its tolerance for sandy soil and low rainfall, it is an important crop in the semiarid regions across Africa and Asia. Seven of these genetic maps were previously published, five of which are from Muñoz‐Amatriaín et al. An additional de novo assembly of a ‘type B’ accession enabled a sequence comparison with the reference genome for the entire genomic region containing the inversion (Figure 2b). All of the assembly statistics significantly improved compared with the eight individual assemblies (Table S3). Statistics for BspQI optical map. Harm. A total of 519 Mb is included in the assembled sequences. 27‐mer distribution of occurrences. The standard MagBead sequencing protocol followed the DNA Sequencing Kit 4.0 v2 (P/N 100‐612‐400), which is known as P6/C4 chemistry. Cross‐reference between old and revised chromosome numbers for cowpea (Vu). The white list included the genomes of: (i) soybean (G. max; Schmutz et al., 2010; assembly Gmax_275_v2.0); (ii) common bean (P. vulgaris; Schmutz et al., 2014; assembly Pvulgaris_218_v1.0); (iii) adzuki bean (V. angularis; Yang et al., 2015; assembly adzuki.ver3.ref.fa.cor); (iv) mung bean (V. radiata; Kang et al., 2014; assembly Vradi.ver6.cor); and (v) Illumina‐based cowpea draft genome (V. unguiculate; Muñoz‐Amatriaín et al., 2017; assembly v.0.03). Because this cultivated parent has the same haplotype as the reference genome, and thus presumably also the same orientation, the lack of recombination across this region suggests that the opposite‐to‐reference orientation is the ancestral (wild) type while the reference orientation carries an inversion. All the cultivated cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. A detached leaf assay for testing transient gene expression and gene editing in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.). (2018). The cow contributes just one of the X chromosomes in the process of meiosis. This work was supported by the NSF IOS‐1543963 (‘Advancing the Cowpea Genome for Food Security’), NSF IIS‐1526742 (‘Algorithms for Genome Assembly of Ultra‐Deep Sequencing Data’) and NSF IIS‐1814359 (‘Improving de novo Genome Assembly using Optical Maps’). Mitotic chromosome studies of some accessions of African yam bean Sphenostylis stenocarpa (Hochst. The percentage of each contig covered by white and black high‐quality alignments was computed by marking each alignment with the corresponding identity score from the output of blast. A decade of Tropical Legumes projects: Development and adoption of improved varieties, creation of market‐demand to benefit smallholder farmers and empowerment of national programmes in sub‐Saharan Africa and South Asia. As summarized in Figure S7 and Table S5, six cowpea chromosomes are largely syntenic with six common bean chromosomes in one‐to‐one relationships, making the numbering conversion straightforward in those cases. Four accessions were tested for each of the two orientations (type A and type B); these were parental lines of some of the 10 genetic maps used for anchoring (Figure S10) and included one wild cowpea (TVNu‐1158). To validate the inversion, the sequence assembly of the reference genome was compared with that of a cowpea accession typical of California breeding lines via MUMmer (Kurtz et al., 2004), using a minimum exact match of 100 bp and a minimum alignment length of 1 kb. Cowpea also known as Vigna unguiculata is a legume of the family Fabaceae ⁄ Leguminosae. This first map was based on 87 random genomic and 5 cDNA RFLPs, 5 RAPDs and some morphological traits representing 10 linkage groups (LGs) spanning 680 cM, although cowpea has a chromosome number of n=11. Molecules of at least 180 kb in length were selected to generate a BNG map assembly. n the number of chromosomes present in each somatic cell, which is constant for any one species of plant or animal. A set of 368 diverse cowpea accessions, including 243 landraces and 97 breeding accessions for which iSelect data existed, was used to estimate the frequency of the inversion among germplasm accessions. Characteristics of the 10 genetic maps used for pseudochromosome construction. Any queries (other than missing content) should be directed to the corresponding author for the article. The small difference between the genome size estimates of Arumuganathan and Earle (1991) and the present work could be due to different values assigned to reference standards, instrument variation between laboratories (Doležel et al., 1998) or actual differences between accessions. This region contains a cluster of QTLs for pod length, seed size, leaf length and leaf width (CPodl8, CSw8, CLl8, CLw8). The cowpea gene counts are more typical of the other annotated Phaseoleae species: 252 and 130 SAUR genes in Phaseolus and Cajanus, respectively, and 341 and 271 NBS‐LRR genes in Phaseolus and Cajanus, respectively (Data S7). A tool called XMView (https://github.com/ucrbioinfo/XMView) developed in‐house that enables the visual inspection of alignments of assembled contigs to two optical maps simultaneously, also displaying consensus genetic map coordinates for SNPs, was used to identify chimeric optical molecules that had to be excluded from the scaffolding step. The homogenate was filtered through a 50‐μm nylon mesh to remove debris and kept on ice. Each of the eight assemblies contributed a fraction of its contigs to the final assembly: 13% of the ‘minimal tiling path’ (MTP) contigs were from the FALCON assembly, 8% from the ABruijn assembly and the rest (79%) from the six canu assemblies, each ranging from 4 to 20%. For example, a major gene for a trait that lies within a low recombination region can be expected to have high linkage drag when introgressed into a different background. of pods per plant Synteny analyses were performed between cowpea and its close relatives adzuki bean (Vigna angularis), mung bean (Vigna radiata) and common bean (P. vulgaris). Post‐filter PacBio read length distribution. To estimate the cowpea IT97K‐499‐35 genome size using k‐mer distribution, 168 M 149 bp paired‐end Illumina reads were processed for a total of about 50 billion bp. TJC and SIW estimated recombination rates. The centromere‐abundant 455‐bp repeat available from Iwata‐Otsubo et al. High‐molecular‐weight DNA was isolated by Amplicon Express (Pullman, WA, USA) from nuclei purified from young etiolated leaves (grown in the dark) of 100% homozygous, pure seeds of cowpea IT97K‐499‐35. An assembly of the single‐haplotype inbred genome of cowpea IT97K‐499‐35 was developed by exploiting the synergies between single‐molecule real‐time sequencing, optical and genetic mapping, and an assembly reconciliation algorithm.
