This website contains information on obtaining the whole genome shotgun sequence of the Cannabis Sativa cultivar "Chemdawg." The data is provided by Medicinal Genomics with the help of Nimbus Informatics. Academic use is free of charge but Amazon EC2 costs are the responsibility of the user. If you are a commercial enterprise please contact Medicinalgenomics@gmail.com for a commercial license.
The sequence data is derived from an ILMN HiSeq v2.0 chemistry with 2x100 reads. There are 7 Lanes in total which add up to 131Gb of sequence. Quality statistics for the run can be found at here. The genome is estimated to be 400Mb thus an estimated 327X coverage.
There are several ways in which we anticipate people will want to use this data:
If improvements are made to the assembly or variant calls we ask people post those to Amazon in public EBS volumes and send a note to Medicinalgenomics@gmail.com so we can link to your improvements from our website.

Today we posted the fastq files for download and made an EBS snapshot of the data available on Amazon.
