Garlic (Allium sativum) is a species in the onion genus, Allium. Its close relatives include the onion, shallot, leek, chive, and Chinese onion. Garlic is native to Central Asia and northeastern Iran, and has long been a common seasoning worldwide, with a history of several thousand years of human consumption and use. It was known to ancient Egyptians, and has been used both as a food flavoring and as a traditional medicine. China produces some 80% of the world supply of garlic.
Since there is no available reference genome currently, we adopted Cogent pipeline to assemble a "fake genome" and used SUPPA to analyze Alternative Splicing events from Iso-Seq data (SRP116575). For details, see reference or click the pipeline tab from the navigation bar.
The genome assembled by Cogent included 17,331 sequences, and we found 21,766 transcripts and 1,116 Alternative Splicing events.
