Abstract:
Flax is an important crop grown for seed and fiber. Flax chromosome number is 2n = 30, and its genome size is about 450–480 Mb. To date, the genomes of several flax varieties have been sequenced and assembled. However, the obtained assemblies are still far from the telomere-to-telomere (T2T) level. We sequenced the genome of flax variety K-3018 on the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platform and obtained 57.7 Gb of R10 simplex reads with an N50 = 18.4 kb (~120× genome coverage). ONT reads longer than 50 kb were kept as ultra-long ones (~10× genome coverage), and the rest of the ONT reads we

Abstract:
Background: Although whole genome sequencing is enabling numerous advances in many fields achieving complete chromosome-level sequence assemblies for diverse species presents difficulties. The problems in part reflect the limitations of current sequencing technologies. Chromosome assembly from ‘short read’ sequence data is confounded by the presence of repetitive genome regions with numerous similar sequence tracts which cannot be accurately positioned in the assembled sequence. Longer sequence reads often have higher error rates and may still be too short to span the larger gaps between conti

The endemic and endangered Chinese firefly Pyrocoelia pectoralis is a sexually dimorphic, nocturnal species. A previous attempt by this team to assemble a draft genome of P. pectoralis using PacBio and Illumina HiSeq X Ten platforms was limited in its usefulness by high redundancy and contamination. This prompted us to conduct an improved chromosome-level genome assembly of P. pectoralis. Ten chromosomes were further assembled based on Hi-C data to a 532.25 Mb final size with a 52.87 Mb scaffold N50. The total repeat lengths in the genome of P. pectoralis amount to 227.69 Mb; 42.78%.

Abstract:
AbstractThe fruit fly Zeugodacus tau (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a major pest of melons and other cucurbits in Southeast Asia. In this study, we used Illumina, Nanopore, and Hi-C sequencing technologies to assemble a reference genome of Z. tau at the chromosomal level. The assembled genome was 421.79 Mb and consisted of six chromosomes (one X-chromosome + five autosomes). The contig N50 was 4.23 Mb. We identified 20,922 protein-coding genes, of which 17,251 (82.45%) were functionally annotated. Additionally, we found 247 rRNAs, 435 tRNAs, 67 small nuclear RNAs, and 829 small RNAs in the genome.

Abstract:
Abstract The snow leopard (Panthera uncia), a vulnerable big cat native to Central Asia, faces an ongoing population decline due to habitat loss and human activities. Despite its conservation importance, genomic resources for this species remain limited. High-quality reference genomes are essential for assessing genetic diversity, structural variation, and evolutionary history. To address this gap, we have generated a long-read-based and proximity-ligation scaffolded de novo genome assembly of a male snow leopard. The final assembly has a total length of 2.46 Gb in 280 scaffolds, of which the
