Abstract
Caryopteris x Clandonensis, also known as bluebeard, is an ornamental plant containing a large variety of terpenes and terpene-like compounds. Four different cultivars were subjected to a principal component analysis to elucidate variations in terpenoid-biosynthesis and consequently, two representative cultivars were sequenced on a genomic level. Functional annotation of genes as well as comparative genome analysis on long read datasets enabled the identification of cultivar-specific terpene synthase and cytochrome p450 enzyme sequences. This enables new insights, especially since terpenoids in research and industry are gaining increasing interest due to their importance in areas such as food preservation, fragrances, or as active ingredients in pharmaceutical formulations. According to BUSCO assessments, the presented genomes have an average size of 355 Mb and about 96.8% completeness. An average of 52,090 genes could be annotated as putative proteins, whereas about 42 were associated with terpene synthases and about 1340 with cytochrome p450 enzymes.
