This version represents the final short read assembly of the Lens culinaris CDC Redberry genome which was distributed as a pre-release version. DNA was extracted from single seed descent plants and sequencing was carried out by next generation DNA sequencing with paired-end, mate-pair and long read libraries over a wide range of sizes and different technologies. This assembly consists of 7 chromosome and approximately 2.7 Gb of assembled sequence.

The initial de novo sequence assembly was carried out using SOAPdenovo2 with input data consisting of 162X coverage paired end (library sizes ranging from 170-800bp) and 66X coverage mate pair data (2-8KB insert sizes). Libraries were discarded which deviated from the expected insert/fragment size. The resulting contigs were further refined using GapCloser using the initial paired end data and scaffolded with BAMBUS using a variety of large mate-pair libraries (insert sizes 20, 25, 30, 35, 40KB). PBJelly software was used for gap-filling and scaffold extension using 13X PacBio SMRT data. These scaffolds were anchored into 7 pseudomolecules using six high-density genetic linkage maps, with the total assembled bases representing over half of the 4 Gb lentil genome.
