Abstract: We report the draft genome of the black cottonwood tree, Populus trichocarpa . Integration of shotgun sequence assembly with genetic mapping enabled chromosome-scale reconstruction of the genome. More than 45,000 putative protein-coding genes were identified. Analysis of the assembled genome revealed a whole-genome duplication event; about 8000 pairs of duplicated genes from that event survived in the Populus genome. A second, older duplication event is indisting… Show more

“…The member of NAC genes in Populus is roughly 1.58 fold than that of Arabidopsis , which is in consistency with the ratio of 1.4~1.6 putative Populus homologs for each Arabidopsis gene based on comparative genomics studies [5]. In comparison to its closest woody perennial grape ( Vitis vinifera ), which possesses only about 79 NAC genes [3], the NAC genes in Populus seems to be highly expanded [5].…”

“…It can be speculated that the presence of more NAC genes in Populus genome may reflect the great needs for these genes to involve in the complicated transcriptional regulations in this woody perennial species. This expansion appears to be arisen from multiple gene duplication events, including a whole-genome duplication event in the Populus lineage followed by multiple segmental and tandem duplication events [5]. …”

“…Eudicots (Box 1), the largest group in flowering plants, are composed of two major clades, the Eurosids and Euasterids. Genome sequences of many members of group Eurosids, such as Arabidopsis , grape, poplar, medicago, cucumber, and so on, have already been published [3,13,29-31]. However, members of the group Euasterids, which has many plants of economic importance, were not represented in the list of known plant genome sequences until the release of the potato ( Solanum tuberosum ) genome belonging to the family Solanaceae [6].…”
