We present chromosome-level, reference-quality assemblies of seven Arabidopsis thaliana accessions (An-1, C24, Cvi-0, Eri-1, Kyo, Ler, Sha) selected across the global range of this predominately ruderal plant. The sequences were assembled from PacBio long reads (45-71x) using Falcon, Canu and MECAT. Chromosome-level scaffolding was achieved with similarity to the reference sequence and validated with genetic maps. Protein-coding genes were annotated in each assembly independently. All types of structural variants and local sequence variants were identified using the whole-genome comparison tool SyRI.

The genome assemblies, gene annotation, orthologous relationships, and sequence differences of any kind can be found in our Data Center. The seeds of accessions can be found in the ABRC stock center.

A manuscript describing assembly and analysis of these genomes can be found on bioRxiv.
