**Open Communication and Transparency**
Our group strives to create a diverse, inclusive, accepting, and welcoming environment for everyone we interact with. As wild rice has ecological, cultural, and agricultural significance here in Minnesota, we encourage open communication and transparency between diverse parties with different perspectives. So please, if you have any questions about who we are and what we do, do not hesitate to ask us!
Genomic Resources
Sequencing and Annotating the Wild Rice Genome
We have been diligently working to develop the first annotated, de novo assembly of the wild rice genome. We have used PacBio and Illumina technologies to generate sequence data as well as HiC and Chicago libraries to aid in the assembly of the genome. Annotation of the genome is currently underway using the transcriptome analysis of six different wild rice tissue types including root, shoot, leaf, seed, female florets, and male florets.
