Mimulus BAC-End Sequencing
BAC-end sequencing (BES) of M. guttatus and M. lewisii, in both the forward and reverse directions, is the third phase of the CUGI Mimulus project. We have constructed libraries of both M. guttatus (MG__Ba and MG__Bb) and M. lewisii (ML__Ba). In this phase we performed BAC-end sequencing of the clones comprising the minimum tile of the physical maps of both species. These sequences are being used to aid in the construction of the genomic map available at the Mimulus Resource Center. All successful sequences have been submitted to the Genbank dbGSS database under the accession numbers ED798518-ED806636 for
M. guttatus and ED806637-ED814994 for M. lewisii. An overall summary of the sequencing results and downloads of successful BESs are provided to the right.

BAC-End Sequencing Status
BAC-end sequencing of the minimum tile is complete for physical maps of both M. guttatus and M. lewisii.

Methods & Procedures
CUGI uses the publicly available phred and crossmatch programs to perform base calling and to remove residual vector from sequences. We use our in-house scripts to filter low quality sequences from the final data sets. Sequences with at least 100 base pairs with a phred value of 20 or higher and less than 5% ambiguous bases are considered successful. All others are removed from the dataset. The final BESs submitted to Genbank contain only the longest contiguous non-vector sequence of bases with low quality bases trimmed off both the beginning and end of the sequence.
