Abstract

Summary: The flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana is a dicot model organism for research in many aspects of plant biology. A comprehensive annotation of its genome paves the way for understanding the functions and activities of all types of transcripts, including mRNA , the various classes of non‐coding RNA , and small RNA . The TAIR 10 annotation update had a profound impact on Arabidopsis research but was released more than 5 years ago. Maintaining the accuracy of the annotation continues to be a prerequisite for future progress. Using an integrative annotation pipeline, we assembled tissue‐specific RNA ‐Seq libraries from 113 datasets and constructed 48 359 transcript models of protein‐coding genes in eleven tissues. In addition, we annotated various classes of non‐coding RNA including micro RNA , long intergenic RNA , small nucleolar RNA , natural antisense transcript, small nuclear RNA , and small RNA using published datasets and in‐house analytic results. Altogether, we identified 635 novel protein‐coding genes, 508 novel transcribed regions, 5178 non‐coding RNA s, and 35 846 small RNA loci that were formerly unannotated. Analysis of the splicing events and RNA ‐Seq based expression profiles revealed the landscapes of gene structures, untranslated regions, and splicing activities to be more intricate than previously appreciated. Furthermore, we present 692 uniformly expressed housekeeping genes, 43% of whose human orthologs are also housekeeping genes. This updated Arabidopsis genome annotation with a substantially increased resolution of gene models will not only further our understanding of the biological processes of this plant model but also of other species.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
