14 decade the International Solanaceae Genome Project (SOL) will
15 create a coordinated network of knowledge about the Solanaceae
16 family. The first goal for the SOL project is to sequence the
17 gene-rich euchromatin in the tomato genome, which will serve as a
18 reference genome for other Solanaceae and related plant taxa.</p>
20 <p>Currently, we are working on integrating the high density genetic
21 map, based on an <em>L. esculentum</em> x <em>L. pennellii</em>
22 F2 population (referred to as the F2.2000
23 population), with the BAC physical map, which was generated by Dr.
24 Wing's group at the AGI. We will have about 2000 'seed BACs' that
25 are anchored onto the genetic map and will be used for the
26 beginning of tomato sequencing project. Since we have a large
27 Solanaceae community, some of you might already have worked on your
28 favorite BACs that were isolated with markers from the genetic map.
29 The anchoring information of your BACs would greatly increase the
30 number of 'seed BACs'. If you have difficulty to sequence your
31 favorite BACs, this might be a good opportunity to <strong>sequence your
32 BACs without any extra costs if it is already known to be anchored
33 via one or more markers on the genetic map. All you
34 need to do is to send the BAC related information (which genetic marker(s) were used
35 to isolate the BAC(s)), as listed in the attached file and in the
36 example case, and your BAC clones to us.</strong> We will make all the possible efforts to
37 sequence your BACs in a timely manner, although we don't guarantee
38 this. Please note that we are not expecting any co-authorship on
39 your future publications, but acknowledgement of our effort will be
40 appreciated. All the sequences will be deposited to the
41 <a href="index.pl">SGN</a> database and
42 GenBank as part of the SOL sequencing project.</p>
45 serve our community and finish the sequencing project efficiently,
46 we are calling for the submission of anchored BAC clones from the
47 LE_HBA library, which was made from <em>L. esculentum</em> cv. Heinz 1706.</p>
