Abstract

We present the complete genome sequences of 12 species of plants from Campeche, Mexico and the greater Yucatan Peninsula: Agave americana, Agave angustifolia, Agave fourcroydes, Agave karwinskii, Agave potatorum, Agave tequiliana, Annona squamosa, Cedrela odorata, Pouteria campechiana, Pouteria glomerata, Trichilia hirta and Trichilia minutiflora.

Methods

Single wild-collected individuals were used for this study. DNA extraction was performed using the Qiagen DNAeasy genomic extraction kit using the standard protocol. A paired-end sequencing library was constructed for each specimen using the Illumina TruSeq kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The libraries were sequenced on an Illumina Hi-Seq platform in paired-end, 2 × 150 bp format. The resulting fastq files were trimmed of adapter/primer sequence and low-quality regions with Trimmomatic v0.33 (Bolger, Lohse, and Usadel 2014). The trimmed sequence was assembled by SPAdes v2.5 (Bankevich et al. 2012) followed by a finishing step using Zanfona (Kieras, O’Neill, and Pirro 2021).
