Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual of Inga oerstediana (Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Fabales; Fabaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 970.60 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies have lengths of 1,166.81 and 175.18 kilobases, respectively. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 33,334 protein-coding genes.

Background
Inga Mill. (Fabaceae) is a ubiquitous and characteristic component of the species-rich neotropical rainforest flora, typifying the rapid evolutionary radiations that generated most neotropical tree diversity. Indeed, Inga exhibits the highest diversification rate of any Amazonian tree genus ( Baker et al., 2014; Richardson et al., 2001). Inga oerstediana Benth. is a widespread tropical rainforest tree species, growing up to 30m tall. This species occurs from southern Mexico through Central America southwards to Bolivia, as well as on the Caribbean islands of Grenada and Trinidad ( Pennington, 1997). Within South America, Inga oerstediana can be confused with its sister species I. edulis, but they largely segregate geographically. Inga oerstediana is found within the Andes and west of the Andes, while I. edulis is widespread across the Amazon Basin and elsewhere east of Andes, with the two species ranges overlapping in the eastern foothills of the Andes. Inga oerstediana displays broad ecological tolerance, being found from 0–3000m in elevation, and while mostly found in perma-wet rainforest this species also occurs in the seasonally dry climate of Ecuador’s Pacific coast.
Tropical rainforest tree species like Inga oerstediana experience high levels of herbivory and have accordingly evolved several means by which to defend themselves. Like all Inga species, I. oerstediana possesses extra-floral nectaries on its leaf midribs that attract ants for defence against herbivores ( Pennington, 1997), and produces a cocktail of defensive chemicals (including flavan3ol monomers, Forrister et al., 2023) in its young leaves to defend them against herbivory. The wide ecological tolerance and broad, spreading crown of I. oerstediana also renders it ideal for use as a shade tree in coffee and cacao cultivation ( Grossman et al., 2006), and it is commonly used for fuel wood ( Pennington, 1997). This species is also widely used for alley-cropping and agroforestry due to its ability to fix nitrogen ( Hands, 1998), while also being cultivated for its edible fruits, which have a sweet, white seed coat (sarcotesta) surrounding the seeds ( Pennington, 1997). As a result, both Inga oerstediana and Inga edulis are cultivated widely in the tropical Americas. The sample sequenced here, originally from the province of Napo in the Ecuadorian Amazon but grown at RBGE, was diploid (2 n=2 x=26) as per previous records for the species ( Hanson, 1995).
Here we present one of three chromosomally complete, annotated genome sequences for Inga, which are the first for the genus. Specifically, this Inga oerstediana genome will be of great utility in future work, given the importance of this species in agroforestry settings. Furthermore, the species-rich genus Inga is a well-established study system for understanding the ecology and evolution of tropical rainforest floras, and so the genomic resources we present here will also be of great utility for such work. Potential avenues for future work using this genome may include exploring the genomic underpinnings of this species’ broad ecological tolerance to improve its utilisation in agroforestry, as well as to understand patterns of genetic diversity in cultivated populations of I. oerstediana. In addition, this reference genome will be a useful resource for comparative genomic work examining the evolution of defence chemistry across Inga.
Genome sequence report
The sequenced genome is of an Inga oerstediana specimen (drIngOers1, Figure 1). Using flow cytometry of leaf tissue, the genome size (1C-value) was estimated as 1.22 pg, equivalent to 1,190 Mb. The genome was sequenced using Pacific Biosciences single-molecule HiFi long reads, generating a total of 33.69 Gb (gigabases) from 2.74 million reads, providing approximately 31-fold coverage. Primary assembly contigs were scaffolded with chromosome conformation Hi-C data, which produced 101.58 Gb from 672.69 million reads, yielding an approximate coverage of 105-fold. Specimen and sequencing information is summarised in Table 1.

Manual assembly curation corrected 123 missing joins or mis-joins and 52 haplotypic duplications, reducing the assembly length by 3.38%, and decreasing the scaffold N50 by 23.22%. The final assembly has a total length of 970.60 Mb in 31 sequence scaffolds with a scaffold N50 of 75.0 Mb ( Table 2) with 312 gaps. The snail plot in Figure 2 provides a summary of the assembly statistics, while the distribution of assembly scaffolds on GC proportion and coverage is shown in Figure 3. The cumulative assembly plot in Figure 4 shows curves for subsets of scaffolds assigned to different phyla. Most (99.8%) of the assembly sequence was assigned to 13 chromosomal-level scaffolds. Chromosome-scale scaffolds confirmed by the Hi-C data are named in order of size ( Figure 5; Table 3). The order and orientation of contigs along Chromosome 12 between 49 Mb and 56 Mb is uncertain. A heterozygous inversion was observed on Chromosome 11 between 20.9 Mb and 35.3 Mb. While not fully phased, the assembly deposited is of one haplotype. Contigs corresponding to the second haplotype have also been deposited. The mitochondrial and plastid genomes were also assembled and can be found as contigs within the multifasta file of the genome submission.

Genome annotation report
The Inga oerstediana genome assembly (GCA_963210345.1) was annotated at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) on Ensembl Rapid Release. The resulting annotation includes 68,987 transcribed mRNAs from 33,334 protein-coding and 14,645 non-coding genes ( Table 2; https://rapid.ensembl.org/Inga_oerstediana_GCA_963210345.1/Info/Index). The average transcript length is 3,483.92. There are 1.44 coding transcripts per gene and 4.80 exons per transcript.
Methods
Sample acquisition and nucleic acid extraction
A specimen of Inga leiocalycina (specimen ID SAN2000551, ToLID drIngOers1) was collected on 2021-09-09 from the wet tropics glasshouse at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. The specimen used for RNA sequencing (specimen ID SAN20001665, ToLID drIngOers2) was collected from the same individual on 2023-05-31. The specimens were collected by Rowan Schley (University of Exeter). The original individual was collected in Napo, Ecuador in 1991 and identified by Terence D. Pennington (Royal Botanic Gardens Kew). The herbarium voucher associated with the sequenced plant is RBGE:BROWP2038 and is deposited in the herbarium of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (Herbarium code: E).
The workflow for high molecular weight (HMW) DNA extraction at the Wellcome Sanger Institute (WSI) Tree of Life Core Laboratory includes a sequence of core procedures: sample preparation and homogenisation, DNA extraction, fragmentation and purification. Detailed protocols are available on protocols.io ( Denton et al., 2023). The drIngOers1 sample was weighed and dissected on dry ice ( Jay et al., 2023) and leaf tissue was cryogenically disrupted using the Covaris cryoPREP ® Automated Dry Pulverizer ( Narváez-Gómez et al., 2023).
HMW DNA was extracted using the Manual Plant MagAttract v4 protocol ( Jackson & Howard, 2023). HMW DNA was sheared into an average fragment size of 12–20 kb in a Megaruptor 3 system ( Bates et al., 2023). Sheared DNA was purified by solid-phase reversible immobilisation, using AMPure PB beads to eliminate shorter fragments and concentrate the DNA ( Oatley et al., 2023). The concentration of the sheared and purified DNA was assessed using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer and Qubit Fluorometer and Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity Assay kit. Fragment size distribution was evaluated by running the sample on the FemtoPulse system.
RNA was extracted from leaf tissue of drIngOers2 in the Tree of Life Laboratory at the WSI using the RNA Extraction: Automated MagMax™ mirVana protocol ( do Amaral et al., 2023). The RNA concentration was assessed using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer and a Qubit Fluorometer using the Qubit RNA Broad-Range Assay kit. Analysis of the integrity of the RNA was done using the Agilent RNA 6000 Pico Kit and Eukaryotic Total RNA assay.
Sequencing
Pacific Biosciences HiFi circular consensus DNA sequencing libraries were constructed according to the manufacturers’ instructions. Poly(A) RNA-Seq libraries were constructed using the NEB Ultra II RNA Library Prep kit. DNA and RNA sequencing was performed by the Scientific Operations core at the WSI on Pacific Biosciences Sequel IIe (HiFi) and Illumina NovaSeq 6000 (RNA-Seq) instruments. Hi-C data were also generated from leaf tissue of drIngOers1 using the Arima-HiC v2 kit. The Hi-C sequencing was performed using paired-end sequencing with a read length of 150 bp on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 instrument.
Genome assembly, curation and evaluation
Assembly
The HiFi reads were first assembled using Hifiasm ( Cheng et al., 2021) with the --primary option. Haplotypic duplications were identified and removed using purge_dups ( Guan et al., 2020). The Hi-C reads were mapped to the primary contigs using bwa-mem2 ( Vasimuddin et al., 2019). The contigs were further scaffolded using the provided Hi-C data ( Rao et al., 2014) in YaHS ( Zhou et al., 2023) using the --break option. The scaffolded assemblies were evaluated using Gfastats ( Formenti et al., 2022), BUSCO ( Manni et al., 2021) and MERQURY.FK ( Rhie et al., 2020). The organelle genomes were assembled using OATK ( Zhou, 2023).
Curation
The assembly was decontaminated using the Assembly Screen for Cobionts and Contaminants (ASCC) pipeline (article in preparation). Manual curation was primarily conducted using PretextView ( Harry, 2022), with additional insights provided by JBrowse2 ( Diesh et al., 2023) and HiGlass ( Kerpedjiev et al., 2018). Scaffolds were visually inspected and corrected as described by Howe et al. (2021). Any identified contamination, missed joins, and mis-joins were corrected, and duplicate sequences were tagged and removed. The process is documented at https://gitlab.com/wtsi-grit/rapid-curation (article in preparation).
Evaluation of final assembly
A Hi-C map for the final assembly was produced using bwa-mem2 ( Vasimuddin et al., 2019) in the Cooler file format ( Abdennur & Mirny, 2020). To assess the assembly metrics, the k-mer completeness and QV consensus quality values were calculated in Merqury ( Rhie et al., 2020). This work was done using the “sanger-tol/readmapping” ( Surana et al., 2023a) and “sanger-tol/genomenote” ( Surana et al., 2023b) pipelines. The genome readmapping pipelines were developed using the nf-core tooling ( Ewels et al., 2020), use MultiQC ( Ewels et al., 2016), and make extensive use of the Conda package manager, the Bioconda initiative ( Grüning et al., 2018), the Biocontainers infrastructure ( da Veiga Leprevost et al., 2017), and the Docker ( Merkel, 2014) and Singularity ( Kurtzer et al., 2017) containerisation solutions. The genome was also analysed within the BlobToolKit environment ( Challis et al., 2020) and BUSCO scores ( Manni et al., 2021) were calculated.
