Sequencing

How was the sequence generated?

These sequences were generated primarily with Pacific Biosciences technology and Dovetail ordering. These are error corrected, assembled contigs. Please be aware that there is collapsing of contigs in this assembly version. We are are working to correct the collapse that occurred during error correction. Annotations and a new assembly version will be forthcoming as well as anchoring to chromosomes.

Restrictions on dataset usage

I would like to use this data to help clone a gene, analyse a gene family, etc.

Please use this data to advance your studies. Please cite "Avena sativa v1.0, https://avenagenome.org/".

I would like to do a large-scale comparison of Avena sativa to other genomes, and/or a global analysis of its gene content.

As this project is funded by the National Science Foundation, we are making the data publicly available before scientific publication according to the Ft. Lauderdale Accord. By accessing these data, you agree not to publish any articles containing analyses of genes or genomic data on a whole genome or chromosome scale prior to publication by Avena sativa Genome Sequencing Project and/or its collaborators of a comprehensive genome analysis ("Reserved Analyses"). "Reserved analyses" include the assembly of the sequences, use of the sequences to guide or aid in assemblies, identification of complete (whole genome) sets of genomic features such as genes, gene families, regulatory elements, repeat structures, GC content, or any other genome feature, and whole-genome- or chromosome- scale comparisons with other species. The embargo on publication of Reserved Analyses by researchers outside of the Avena sativa Genome Sequencing Project is expected to extend until the publication of the results of the sequencing project is accepted. Scientific users are free to publish papers dealing with specific genes or small sets of genes using the sequence data. The assembly and sequence data should not be redistributed or repackaged without permission from the Avena sequencing group. Any redistribution of the data during the embargo period should carry this notice: "The Avena sequencing project provides these data in good faith, but makes no warranty, expressed or implied, nor assumes any legal liability or responsibility for any purpose for which the data are used. Once the sequence is moved to unreserved status, the data will be freely available for any subsequent use."

We prefer that potential users of this sequence assembly contact the individuals listed under Contacts with their plans to ensure that proposed usage of sequence data are not considered Reserved Analyses.
