Abstract
AbstractIn genomes, genes are the most important components because of the function in controlling various biological traits and regulating the complex biological processes in plants. Reliable chromosome-scaled genome assembly supplies the abundant and precise genome information for gene and gene family research in sesame. In this chapter, we deliberate on the main techniques used for genome annotation and gene prediction in sesame (var. Yuzhi 11). Distribution of all genes and gene families in sesame genome is described. Meanwhile, the main research achievements in some key gene families related to key biological processes, such as fatty acid biosynthesis and metabolism and responses to environmental conditions in sesame, are discussed in the section.KeywordsSesame (sesamum indicum L.)Gene annotationDisease resistance geneFatty acid biosynthesis and metabolism-related geneTranscription factor
