Glycine max

The Soybean (Glycine max) genome project was initiated through the DOE-JGI Community Sequencing Program (CSP) by a consortium led by Gary Stacey, Randy Shoemaker, Scott Jackson, Jeremy Schmutz, and Dan Rokhsar. Large-scale shotgun sequencing of soybean began in the middle of 2006 and was completed early in 2008. A total of ~13 million attempted Sanger shotgun reads were produced and deposited in the NCBI Trace Archive in accordance with our commitment to early access and the Fort Lauderdale genome data release policy. See below for information on the 2010 publication of the soybean genome. (from Phytozome v12.1)
