Abstract

The CP 96-1252 cultivar of sugarcane is a complex hybrid of commercial importance. DNA was extracted from lab-grown leaf tissue and sequenced. The raw Illumina DNA sequencing results provide 101 Gbp of genome sequence reads. The dataset is available from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/PRJNA345486/.

Keywords: DNA sequencing; Sugarcane genome; sequencing reads.
