The Sesame Genome

Part of the book series: Compendium of Plant Genomes ((CPG))

Abstract

Implementation of the Sesame Genome Project and the achievement of sesame genome research provide abundant bioinformatics information for the theoretical and applied genetic analyses of the important agronomic traits and biological processes in sesame. In order to facilitate the application of the genome information and bioinformatics, we present the discovery of some key genes such as SiDt1, Sidwf1, SiOPP, and Sicl1 and describe the main methods of gene cloning based on the sesame genome data. The potential of gene digging using the high-quality assembled genome is also discussed in this chapter.
