Abstract: ARTICLES Genome sequencing and analysis of the model grass Brachypodium distachyonThe International Brachypodium Initiative* Three subfamilies of grasses, the Ehrhartoideae, Panicoideae and Pooideae, provide the bulk of human nutrition and are poised to become major sources of renewable energy. Here we describe the genome sequence of the wild grass Brachypodium distachyon (Brachypodium), which is, to our knowledge, the first member of the Pooideae subfamily to be sequenced. Comparison of the Brachypodium, rice… Show more

“…In total, we predicted 34,879 protein-coding gene models. The average gene size was 3,207 bp, with a mean of 4.7 exons per gene, which was similar to that found for B. distachyon (5.2) 15 but slightly higher than that of rice (3.8) 12 , maize (4.1) 13 and sorghum (4.3) 14 . In comparison with the 28,000 genes estimated for the A genome of hexaploid wheat 7 , our gene set for T. urartu contained 6,800 more members, indicating a more complete representation of genes in our analysis.…”
