Assembly of the durian chloroplast genome using long PacBio reads [PDF]
AbstractWe have assembled the complete sequence of the Durio zibethinus chloroplast genome using long PacBio reads. Durian is a valuable commercial tree that produces durian fruit, which is popular in Southeast Asia. The chloroplast genome assembled into a single 143 kb cyclic contig that contained 111 genes.

PacBio next-generation sequencing uncovers Apicomplexa diversity in different habitats
Abstract The phylum Apicomplexacomprises a large group of protozoan organisms that are obligatory intracellular parasites and can infect various vertebrate and invertebrate hosts, leading to several significant medical and veterinary pathologies, including toxoplasmosis, cryptosporidiosis, theileriosis and eimeriosis.

Phylogenomic analysis of lactobacillus curvatus reveals two lineages distinguished by genes for fermenting plant-derived carbohydrates [PDF]
Lactobacillus curvatus is a lactic acid bacterium encountered in many different types of fermented food (meat, seafood, vegetables, and cereals). Although this species plays an important role in the preservation of these foods, few attempts have been ...

Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.

Cerulean: A hybrid assembly using high throughput short and long reads
Genome assembly using high throughput data with short reads, arguably, remains an unresolvable task in repetitive genomes, since when the length of a repeat exceeds the read length, it becomes difficult to unambiguously connect the flanking regions.

De novo assembly of the cattle reference genome with single-molecule sequencing. [PDF]
BackgroundMajor advances in selection progress for cattle have been made following the introduction of genomic tools over the past 10-12 years. These tools depend upon the Bos taurus reference genome (UMD3.1.1), which was created using now-outdated ...

Predominant contribution of cis-regulatory divergence in the evolution of mouse alternative splicing [PDF]
Divergence of alternative splicing represents one of the major driving forces to shape phenotypic diversity during evolution. However, the extent to which these divergences could be explained by the evolving cis-regulatory versus trans-acting factors ...
