About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) awarded a $27,820 firm-fixed price purchase order to the University of Delaware to perform high-fidelity DNA sequencing of alfalfa genomic samples. The contract supports the USDA ARS's goal of developing genomic resources for alfalfa, which currently lacks a reference genome. The University of Delaware will isolate DNA, prepare libraries, and conduct long-read sequencing using Pacific Biosciences technology to generate at least 64 gigabases of circular consensus sequence data for four alfalfa plant samples. This work is expected to identify the core and accessory genomes of alfalfa, with a focus on genes related to fall dormancy, winter survival, and disease resistance. No set-aside designations were specified for this contract.
