Exploring structural variation and gene family architecture with De Novo assemblies of 15 Medicago genomes

Abstract Background Previous studies exploring sequence variation in the model legume, Medicago truncatula, relied on mapping short reads to a single reference. However, read-mapping approaches are inadequate to examine large, diverse gene families or to probe variation in repeat-rich or highly dive...
