Chinese international consortium solves genome analysis of adzuki bean

Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis), an important legume crop, is grown in more than 30 countries, as an important source of starch, digestible protein, mineral elements, and vitamins. By whole-genome shotgun sequencing through a consortium including BGI, 450 Mb (83% of the genome) was assigned to the 11 chromosomes of adzuki bean by using a single nucleotide polymorphism genetic map. A total of 34,183 protein-coding genes were predicted.
