Phytomonas spp.

Sequencing of two strains, EM1 & Hart1

State of the project: In progress

We propose the comparative sequencing of two trypanosomatids, one pathogenic isolate from coconut (Cocos nucifera), Hart1, a molecular karyotype from group H, and one latex isolate from Euphorbia pinea, EM1 (group D). It will be the first plant trypanosomatid genome sequence. The haploid genome sizes are estimated as 22 Mb (for strain EM1) and 13 Mb (for strain Hart1). The sequencing strategy for both genomes will make use of the 454 technology to produce high-quality draft sequences. We will proceed to annotation of these sequences.
