Frontiers | Diversity analyses in two ornamental and large-genome Ranunculaceae species based on a low-cost Klenow NGS-based protocol
Persian buttercup (Ranunculus asiaticus L.) and poppy anemone (Anemone coronaria L.) are ornamental, outcrossing, perennial species belonging to the Ranunculaceae family, characterized by large and highly repetitive genomes. We applied K-seq protocol in both species to generate high-throughput sequencing data and produce a large number of genetic polymorphisms. The technique entails the application of Klenow polymerase-based PCR using short primers designed by analyzing k-mer sets in the genome ...
