Genomics and Bioinformatics Team | 2019 CucCAP Progress Report
Report from Team members: Zhangjun Fei (Boyce Thompson Institute), Umesh Reddy (West Virginia St. Univ), Amnon Levi (USDA, ARS), Yiqun Weng (USDA, ARS), Michael Mazourek (Cornell University), Pat Wechter (USDA, ARS), Rebecca Grumet (Michigan State University) on Developing genomic and bioinformatic platforms for cucurbit crops and Performing GBS analysis of PI collections, establish core populations of the four species, and provide community resource for genome wide association studies (GWAS).
CucCAP team developed a new database for cucurbit genomics
The CucCAP team, in collaboration with scientists from around the world, has developed the Cucurbit Genomics Database (CuGenDB), which provides a central portal for the research and breeding community to store, mine, analyze, integrate and disseminate rapidly accumulated genomic and genetic data in cucurbits.
CucCAP Researchers Provide High Resolution Genetic Characterization of the U.S. Cucumber Germplasm Collection
High-throughput, high resolution, genetic characterization of the complete cucumber germplasm collection. maintained by the US National Plant Germplasm System was performed by genotyping by sequencing.
CucCAP Team Presentations at PAGXXVII
The Plant & Animal Genome Conference (PAG) is designed to provide a forum on recent developments and future plans for plant & animal genome projects. Consisting of technical presentations, poster sessions, exhibits and workshops, the conference is an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and applications on this internationally important project.
