A Chromosome-level genome assembly of the American bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana)

Zhang K, Zhang Y, Tian Y, et al.

The 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, …

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the autotetraploid yellow pitaya provides novel insights into evolution of trait patterning in pitaya species with different ploidy

Zaman QU, Raza A, Hui L, et al.

<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 …

Mapping-based genome size estimation

Natarajan S, Gehrke J, Pucker B.

While the size of chromosomes can be measured under a microscope, obtaining the exact size of a genome remains a challenge. Biochemical methods and k-mer distribution-based approaches allow only estimations. An alternative approach to estimate …
