Chromosome lengths and pairwise comparison of chromosome 12 across cassava cultivars (a) Stacked bar plots display the chromosome lengths of TMEB117 (both haplotypes), TME204 (both haplotypes), TME7 (primary haplotype), and AM560-2 version 8 genome. The plot uncovers that TMEB117’s chromosome 12 exceeds 50 Mbp, exhibiting a considerable size difference compared to other cassava genome assemblies. (b, c) Pairwise synteny plots comparing chromosome 12 haplotypes (hap1 and hap2) of TMEB117 and TME204. (d) Comparison of TMEB117 chromosome 12 hap1 with the cassava reference genome AM560-2 (version 8). (e) Assembly of TMEB117 chromosome 12 using HiCanu (blue, primary haplotype), hifiasm (orange, hap1), and Flye (green, mosaic haplotype), (f) Zoomed in view of chromosome 12 from Landi et al., 2023, showing high repeat density and low gene density near the chromosome’s end.
