CYP_Pacbio_v2 and TUR_Pacbio_v2 Pacbio sequencing of the CYP and TUR accession was performed from leaf material of 4-week old plants. Library preparation and PacBio sequencing were performed by the Next Generation Sequencing Facility at Vienna BioCenter Core Facilities (VBCF), member of the Vienna BioCenter (VBC), Austria. The DNA was sheared to 34-165 kb and size-selected by a BluePippin instrument (sage science) with a lower cutoff at 25 kb. The library was prepared using the SMRTBell express Kit (PacBio) and sequenced on a PacBio Sequel platform (PacBio) with a yield of 22.04 Gb. The genome was assembled using Canu (version 1.8; genomeSize = 235 m; corMaxEvidenceErate = 0.15, other parameters in default settings). Raw contigs were polished with Arrow in two rounds using the default parameters and Pacbio reads. These data are from Merai et al.
