Full description Bioplatforms Australia will provide genome sequencing for up to 23 key wheat varieties of importance to Australia. The first 16 varieties (Kukri, Excalibur, RAC875, Gladius, Drysdale, Baxter, Yitpi, Chara, Westonia, Alsen, AC Barrie, Volcani, Pastor, Xiaoyan 54, Wyalkatchem, H45) have been selected by research and industry partners based on their genetic diversity and existing relevance to the Australian wheat research community. Next-gen technology will be used to generate 10x genomic sequence coverage
