Panagram reveals pangenome architectures underlying trait variation in plants and animals

Katharine M. Jenike, Nicole L. Brown, Sam Kovaka, Delphine Larivière, Robin Burns, Frances L. Chen, Hagai Shohat, Matthias Benoit, Tyler C. Collins, Rachel F. Daniels, Blaine Fitzgerald, Iacopo Gentile, Anat Hendelman, Rachel A. Johnston, Betty Y.H. Huang, , Michael C. Schatz

Alignment-free pan-k-mer profiles track minimap2 similarity (whole-chromosome r^2 0.959-0.968), profile 605 vertebrate genomes in about a day on 40 cores, and nominate trait-linked loci across plants and animals.
