Draft genome sequence and SSR mining data of Acacia pachyceras Schwartz.

ABSTRACT: Acacia tree population is declining in several countries of the world especially in the Arabian peninsula due to human-induced activities. The tree has potential medicinal and economic benefits as a source of fuel and timber. It can fix nitrogen, a significant property that assists in desert rehabilitation. However, the lack of genomic information of Acacia pachyceras hampers its genetic study and breeding process. We performed paired-end sequencing of A. pachyceras at a depth of 120X to obtain raw sequences of 108.9 GB with a per base quality >Q30. Filtered raw data was assembled into a fasta file of 4 GB. The assembled genomic sequences consisted of 901,755 single sequence repeats (SSRs). In total 11,596 primer pairs were designed against these SSR motifs. The data g
