<h4>Background</h4>Marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma) is considered as an important ecotoxicological indicator to study the biochemical, physiological and molecular responses of marine organisms towards increasing amount of pollutants in marine and estuarine waters.<h4>Results</h4>In this study, we …
Read PDFWhile the cost and time for assembling a genome has drastically decreased, it still remains a challenge to assemble a highly contiguous genome. These challenges are rapidly being overcome by the integration of long-read sequencing …
Read PDF<i>Salmonella enterica</i> is a significant and phylogenetically diverse zoonotic pathogen. To understand its genomic heterogeneity and antimicrobial resistance, we performed long-read sequencing on <i>Salmonella</i> isolated from retail meats and food animals. A collection of 134 …
Read PDFThe assembly of divergent haplotypes using noisy long-read data presents a challenge to the reconstruction of haploid genome assemblies, due to overlapping distributions of technical sequencing error, intralocus genetic variation, and interlocus similarity within these …
Read PDFMegoura crassicauda (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a major pest species that inflicts significant damage on various legume crops worldwide, causing substantial global economic losses. In this study, we present a chromosome-scale genome assembly of M. crassicauda. …
Read PDFBacteriophage receptor-binding proteins are often attached to the tail via a conserved N-terminal adapter/anchor domain, presumed to function independently from the distal receptor-binding/catalytic domain. Using synthetic phage technology, we demonstrated that the N-terminal domain in …
Read PDFThe Pacific whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei, synonym Lipopenaeus vannamei) is an important aquaculture species, and its breeding improvement relies heavily on high-quality genomic resources. Here, we sequenced the genome of the Pacific whiteleg shrimp using …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <i>Hoplodrina octogenaria</i> (Uncertain moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 476.65 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.98%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual male specimen of <i>Idaea biselata</i> (Small Fan-footed Wave; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence has a total length of 424.30 megabases. Most of the assembly (97.24%) …
Read PDFThe American bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana) is both an economically important aquaculture species and a globally distributed invasive organism with high environmental adaptability. In this study, we present a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for the species, …
Read PDFAlcea rosea, a member of the Malvaceae family, is celebrated for its rich floral palette and global horticultural significance. Here, we present a high-quality reference genome for A. rosea, achieving a genome assembly size of …
Read PDFThe large-scale loach (Paramisgurnus dabryanus; Cypriniformes: Cobitidae) is primarily distributed in East Asia. It is an important economic fish species characterized by fast growth, temperature-dependent sex determination and the ability to breathe air. Currently, molecular …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a female <i>Humulus lupulus</i> plant (Common hop, Hops; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Rosales; Cannabaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 2,488.10 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.39%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <i>Microdon myrmicae</i> (Bog Ant Fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syrphidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,366.18 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.91%) is …
Read PDFCyperus rotundus, a globally distributed and highly competitive weed, has evolved herbicide resistance, posing a significant challenge to sustainable agriculture; however, the lack of genomic resources has limited comprehensive investigations into its resistance mechanisms. Here, …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Yellow pitaya (Selenicereus megalanthus, 2n = 4x = 44) breeding remains severely hindered due to the lack of a reference genome.<h4>Results</h4>Here, we present a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of yellow pitaya using PacBio HiFi sequencing …
Read PDFThe reference genome of <i>Lewinskya acuminata</i> (H. Philib.) F. Lara, Garilleti & Goffinet will enable phylogenomic, biogeographic, and evolutionary studies within the <i>Orthotrichaceae</i> and related bryophyte lineages at a depth previously inaccessible. This species of …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <i>Volucella zonaria</i> (Hornet Hoverfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syrphidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,262.78 megabases. Most of the assembly (89.25%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFThe Mountain bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci), a critically endangered tragelaphine antelope native to the montane forests of Kenya, faces significant threats from habitat loss and hunting. Although the Mountain bongo is a flagship species in …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Carex rostrata</i> (Bottle Sedge; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Poales; Cyperaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 382.30 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 35 …
