RG: Looking at SIRE retrotransposon family across 62 diploit spp - some groups amplified, others completely absent. #PAGXXIII
8:47pm January 11th 2015 via Hootsuite
RG: Sampled 10 diploid Coffea spp; using @rochesequencing at low-pass (6% - 15%), surprised that # of repeats constant #PAGXXIII
8:43pm January 11th 2015 via Hootsuite
RG: 188 Copia and 387 Gypsy LTR retrotransposon families in C canefora. Evidence is recent amplification #PAGXXIII

AK: Looked at 16 microsatellites, 135 Arabica accessions, cultivated ones cluster; wild accessions diverge #PAGXXIII
8:26pm January 11th 2015 via Hootsuite
AK: PacBio gave 9.8k contigs, N50 267Kb. Short reads: 119k contigs, N50 of 8.8kb. Both about 80% est genome size #PAGXXIII

AK: A di-haploid is not tetraploid; C. canephora can create dihaploid 1n=22. Autofertile, but some cross-pollination #PAGXXIII

AK: Shor read, long read (PacBio), GBS, RNA-Seq both short and long reads; high-density maps #PAGXXIII
