The genome sequence of the Neglected Rustic moth, <i>Xestia castanea</i> (Esper, 1798) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Broad GR, Natural History Museum Genome Acquisition Lab, Darwin Tree of Life Barcoding Collective, et al.

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Xestia castanea</i> (Neglected Rustic; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 721.78 megabases and 685.53 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 …

Beyond blacklists: a critical assessment of exclusion set generation strategies and alternative approaches

Wall BPG, Ogata JD, Nguyen M, et al.

<h4>Motivation</h4>Short-read sequencing data can be affected by alignment artifacts in certain genomic regions. Removing reads overlapping these exclusion regions, previously known as Blacklists, help to potentially improve biological signal. Alternatively, "sponge" or decoy sequences have …

OMAnnotator: a novel approach to building an annotated consensus genome sequence

Bates S, Dessimoz C, Nevers Y.

<h4>Motivation</h4>Advances in sequencing technologies have enabled researchers to sequence whole genomes rapidly and cheaply. However, despite improvements in genome assembly, structural genome annotation (i.e. the identification of protein-coding genes) remains challenging, particularly for eukaryotic genomes. …
