ABSTRACT: Identifying crossover locations from bulked seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana Col x Ler F2 plants (WT and recq4) using Nanopore-seq and COmapper
Project description:We sequenced DNA from a bulk of Col x Ler F2 hybrid plants (WT and recq4) using Nanopore long-read sequencing and identified crossover sites with COmapper. For nanopore sequencing of gDNA from 1,000 pooled seedlings, 10-day-old seedlings were ground in liquid nitrogen using a mortar and pestle. The ground tissue was resuspended in four volumes of CTAB buffer (1% [w/v] CTAB, 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.7 M NaCl, 10 mM EDTA) and incubated at 65°C for 30 min. Following chloroform extraction, isopropanol precipitation and removal of RNAs as above, the gDNA pellet was resuspended in 150 μl TE (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.1 mM EDTA) buffer and gDNA was quantified using a Qubit dsDNA Broad Range assay kit (Thermo Fisher, Q32853). Nine micrograms of gDNA from pollen or seedlings was used to construct a nanopore long-read sequencing library using a Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced using a PromethION platform (BGI, Hong Kong).
Project description:We sequenced DNA from the leaves of ten Col x Ler F1 hybrid plants (WT and recq4) using Nanopore long-read sequencing and identified crossover sites with COmapper. These data were used as a negative control for COmapper, as no crossover sites were expected to be detected. For nanopore sequencing of gDNA from leaves, leaves from 10 5-week-old plants were ground in liquid nitrogen using a mortar and pestle. The ground tissue was resuspended in four volumes of CTAB buffer (1% [w/v] CTAB, 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.7 M NaCl, 10 mM EDTA) and incubated at 65°C for 30 min. Following chloroform extraction, isopropanol precipitation and removal of RNAs as above, the gDNA pellet was resuspended in 150 μl TE (10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.1 mM EDTA) buffer and gDNA was quantified using a Qubit dsDNA Broad Range assay kit (Thermo Fisher, Q32853). Nine micrograms of gDNA from pollen or seedlings was used to construct a nanopore long-read sequencing library using a Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced using a PromethION platform (BGI, Hong Kong).
Project description:Genomic DNA from 39 recq4 Col x Ler F2 individuals was extracted using the CTAB method. Equal amounts of DNA from these 39 plants were pooled and nine micrograms of gDNA from each pool was used to generate Nanopore sequencing libraries with the Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced independently using PromethION (BGI, Hong Kong).

Project description:Genomic DNA from 96 recq4 Ler x recq4 Col/Ler backcross F1 population was extracted using CTAB and used to generate sequencing libraries as described (Rowan et al; Yelina et al), with the following modifications. DNA was extracted from 3 rosette leaves of 5 week old plants and 150 ng of DNA used as input for each library. DNA shearing was carried out for 20 minutes at 37°C with 0.4U of DNA Shearase (Zymo research). The barcoded adapters used for library construction are listed in Rowan et al. Each set of 96 libraries was sequenced on one lane of an Illumina NextSeq500 instrument (300-cycle Mid Output run). Sequencing data was analysed to identify crossovers as previously reported, using the TIGER pipeline.
Project description:We sequenced pollen DNA from Col x Ler F1 hybrid plants using Nanopore long-read sequencing and identified crossover sites with COmapper. To purify pollen grains from F1 hybrid plants and extract their genomic DNA, whole inflorescences of hybrid plants were collected and transferred to ice-cold 10% (w/v) sucrose in a 50-ml tubes. Flowers were homogenized with a blender (Tefal, BL3051KR), filtered through 80-μm nylon mesh, and centrifuged at 350g for 10 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was discarded and the pellet was resuspended in 10% (w/v) sucrose, filtered through a 40-μm cell strainer, and centrifuged at 100g for 10 min at 4°C. The purified pellet was frozen in liquid nitrogen and ground with a mortar and pestle. The pellet powder was resuspended in CTAB buffer (1% [w/v] CTAB, 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 0.7 M NaCl, 10 mM EDTA). Proteinase K (NEB, P8107S) and RNase A (20 mg/ml, Roche, 10109142001) were added to a final concentration of 80 U/ml and 20 μg/ml, respectively. To check pollen disruption, a 1-μl sample was diluted in a 1:10 ratio with 10% (w/v) sucrose and observed under a stereomicroscope (Leica, M165 FC). Then, 500 μl of the resuspended pellet was transferred to a 1.5-ml tube, to which an equal volume of 25:24:1 (v/v/v) phenol:chloroform:isoamylalcohol (Sigma, 77617) was added, and the mixture was homogenized by gentle manual shaking. The tube was centrifuged at 15,000g for 10 min at 4°C, and 400 μl of supernatant was transferred into a new tube, to which a Nanobind disk (Nanobind® Plant Nuclei Kit RT, PacBio, 102-302-000) was added. The tube containing the Nanobind disk was gently mixed, 400 μl isopropanol was added, and the tube was slowly inverted and incubated for 2 h at room temperature on a rotator set at 7 rpm. A magnetic rack (DynaMagTM-2, Invitrogen, 12321D) was used to separate the disk and the supernatant, and the supernatant was removed. PW1 buffer in the Nanobind Plant Nuclei Kit was used for washing the disk twice and the supernatant was removed completely by centrifugation. Then, 150 μl EB+ buffer was added onto the disc and gently tabbed and incubated overnight at room temperature. The supernatant was transferred to a new 1.5-ml tube and stored at −20°C. The DNA was quantified using a Qubit dsDNA Broad Range assay kit (Thermo Fisher, Q32853) and integrity checked by gel electrophoresis. Nine micrograms of gDNA from pollen was used to construct a nanopore long-read sequencing library using a Ligation Sequencing Kit V14 (Nanopore, SQK-LSK114). The libraries were sequenced using a PromethION platform (BGI, Hong Kong).
