Scratching the Itch: Updated Perspectives on the Schistosomes Responsible for Swimmer’s Itch around the World

Pathogens, 2022
Although most studies of digenetic trematodes of the family Schistosomatidae dwell on representatives causing human schistosomiasis, the majority of the 130 identified species of schistosomes infect birds or non-human mammals.

Identification and Quantification of Genomic Repeats and Sample Contamination in Assemblies of 454 Pyrosequencing Reads

Sequencing, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Contigs assembled from 454 reads from bacterial genomes demonstrate a range of read depths, with a number of contigs having a depth that is far higher than can be expected. For reference genome sequence datasets, there exists a high correlation between the contig specific read depth and the number of copies present in the genome.
