Reference quality genome sequence of Indian pomegranate cv. 'Bhagawa' ( L.).

Pomegranate is an important fruit crop for ensuring livelihood and nutrition security in fragile semi-arid regions of the globe having limited irrigation resources. This is a high-value, nutritionally rich, and export-oriented agri-commodity that ensures high returns on investment to growers across the world. Although it is a valuable fruit crop, it has received only a limited genomics research outcome.

Identification and validation of SSR markers for pv. an incitant of bacterial blight of pomegranate.

Unlabelled: This study reports genome wide characterization and development of first set of microsatellite markers through in silico analysis of eight sequenced pv. strains available in the public database. SSR survey resulted in identification of ~ 4638 perfect SSRs, with mean marker frequency 901 SSRs/Mb and densitiy of 11,006 bp/Mb aross the eight genomes.
