Abstract

A high-quality genome assembly can facilitate a better understanding of genetic variation and gene function in a species. Recent advances in long-read sequencing have the potential to produce more complete genome assemblies. Structural variations (SVs) are forms of genetic variation, which play important roles in evolution and functional diversity. In this thesis, we demonstrate the advantages of long-read sequencing in canola genome assembly and their potential in canola SV study.
