Abstract Rice is the world's most important food crop and a model for cereal research. At
430 megabases in size, its genome is the most compact of the cereals. We report
the sequence of chromosome 10, the smallest of the 12 rice chromosomes (22.4
megabases), which contains 3471 genes. Chromosome 10 contains considerable
heterochromatin with an enrichment of repetitive elements on 10S and an
enrichment of expressed genes on 10L. Multiple insertions from organellar
genomes were detected. Collinearity was apparent between rice chromosome 10 and
sorghum and maize. Comparison between the draft and finished sequence
demonstrates the importance of finished sequence.
