CannMed2016Molecular Phylotyping of Cannabis

Ryan Lynch PhD

Background

• Bacterial genomics since 2008

• Cannabis genomics since 2013, started in Nolan Kane’s Lab

• Medicinal Genomics scientist since late 2015

Cannabis diversity—phenotypic and genetic

What can we do with Cannabis DNA?

• Past, Present and Future

• Current efforts to unravel plant history– How many species?– ‘indica’ vs ‘sativa’? Hemp? ruderalis?

• Genetics of specific chemoprofiles of cannabinoids and terpenoids?

• Strain name issues– Is my OG Kush the real OG?

• Certifications set now

• Future prediction of traits from DNAseq– Custom strain development

DNA: genomes contain information about nearly all aspects of biology, even if we cannot yet interpret it.

Scaling up with strainSEEKtm

• CO, CA, MA, ME, WA, Spain samples… so far• On average, our Rad seq protocol yields at least 10x

coverage of 625,000 sites of the current reference genome. These sites contain 25,000 to 30,000 informative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)

• This April will witness over 100,000 genetically certified METRC tracked products hit the CO market (~60 strains)

Summary

• DNA sequence analysis can tell you things about the plant (or plant microbial community) that are not otherwise apparent

• DNA data is an additional layer of information, not a substitute for other types of data like chemical analytics or patient responses.

• We have just scratched the surface of Cannabis potential as it produces at least 113 phytocannabinoids and at least 120 terpenoids, yet what is available on the market or for research today is quite limited!
