Information About the Centromeres in the Rice Genome Annotation Project Pseudomolecules

Centromeres were identified using the CentO centromeric sequence (AY101510; Cheng et al., 2002) as well as sequencing and flourescent in situ hybridization information. The centromeres are around, or adjacent to, the following clones on each of the 12 rice chromosomes.
