Multi-metric locality sensitive hashing enhances alignment accuracy of bisulfite sequencing reads: BisHash

Nikaein H, Sharifi-Zarchi A.

<h4>Motivation</h4>Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is a widely used algorithm for estimating similarity between large datasets in bioinformatics, with applications in genome assembly, sequence alignment, and metagenomics. However, traditional single-metric LSH approaches often lead to inefficiencies, particularly …

Colora: a Snakemake workflow for complete chromosome-scale de novo genome assembly

Obinu L, Booth T, De Weerd H, et al.

<h4>Motivation</h4>De novo assembly creates reference genomes that underpin many modern biodiversity and conservation studies. Large numbers of new genomes are being assembled by labs around the world. To avoid duplication of efforts and variable data …

The genome sequence of the Tawny Oak Tortrix, &lt;i&gt;Acleris ferrugana&lt;/i&gt; (Denis &amp; Schiffermüller), 1775 (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Crowley LM, Boyes D, University of Oxford and Wytham Woods Acquisition Lab, et al.

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Acleris ferrugana</i> (Tawny Oak Tortrix; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Tortricidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 480.03 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.03%) is scaffolded …

Description and complete genome sequence of &lt;i&gt;Mycobacterium venezuelense&lt;/i&gt; sp. nov., a rapidly growing species recovered from a soft tissue infection

Palacios YYP, Barreto LBPF, Sisco MC, et al.

We describe a rapidly growing mycobacterial (RGM) species closely related to <i>Mycobacterium wolinskyi</i>. The bacterium was isolated from three biopsies obtained from a 78-year-old Venezuelan woman who presented with a chronic superficial erythematous plaque in …
