We report a repertoire of diverse aneuploids harbored by a newly synthesized segmental allotetraploid rice population with fully sequenced sub-genomes and demonstrate their retention features and phenotypic consequences. Aneuploidy, defined as unequal numbers of different chromosomes, is a large-effect genetic variant and may produce diverse cellular and organismal phenotypes. Polyploids are more permissive to chromosomal content imbalance than their diploid and haploid counterparts, and therefore, may enable more in-depth investigation of the phenotypic consequences of aneuploidy. Based on whole-genome resequencing, we identify that ca. 40% of the 312 selfed individual plants sampled from an early generation rice segmental allotetraploid population are constitutive aneuploids harboring 55 distinct aneuploid karyotypes. We document that gain of a chromosome is more prevalent than loss of a chromosome, and the 12 rice chromosomes have distinct tendencies to be in an aneuploid state. These properties of aneuploidy are constrained by multiple factors including the number of genes residing on the chromosome and predicted functional connectivity with other chromosomes. Two broad categories of aneuploidy-associated phenotypes are recognized: those shared by different aneuploids, and those associated with aneuploidy of a specific chromosome. A repertoire of diverse aneuploids in the context of a segmental allotetraploid rice genome with fully sequenced sub-genomes provides a tractable resource to explore the roles of aneuploidy in nascent polyploid genome evolution and helps to decipher the mechanisms conferring karyotypic stabilization on the path to polyploid speciation and towards artificial construction of novel polyploid crops.

Database of biological data related to a single initiative, originating from a single organization or from a consortium. A BioProject record provides users a single place to find links to the diverse data types generated for that project. It is a searchable collection of complete and incomplete (in-progress) large-scale sequencing, assembly, annotation, and mapping projects for cellular organisms. Submissions are supported by a web-based Submission Portal. The database facilitates organization and classification of project data submitted to NCBI, EBI and DDBJ databases that captures descriptive information about research projects that result in high volume submissions to archival databases, ties together related data across multiple archives and serves as a central portal by which to inform users of data availability. BioProject records link to corresponding data stored in archival repositories. The BioProject resource is a redesigned, expanded, replacement of the NCBI Genome Project resource. The redesign adds tracking of several data elements including more precise information about a project''''s scope, material, and objectives. Genome Project identifiers are retained in the BioProject as the ID value for a record, and an Accession number has been added. Database content is exchanged with other members of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC). BioProject is accessible via FTP.

Samtools for manipulating next generation sequencing data used for reading, writing, editing, indexing,viewing nucleotide alignments in SAM,BAM,CRAM format. BCFtools used for reading, writing BCF2,VCF, gVCF files and calling, filtering, summarising SNP and short indel sequence variants. HTSlib used for reading, writing high throughput sequencing data.
