Bacteria of the Paenibacillus genus are becoming important in many fields of science, including agriculture, for their positive effects on the health of plants. However, there are little information available on this genus compared to other bacteria (such as Bacillus or Pseudomonas), especially when considering genomic information. Sequencing the genomes of plant-beneficial bacteria is a crucia...

This study aimed at constructing a draft genome of the adult female worm Toxocara canis using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and de novo assembly, as well as to find new genes after annotation using functional genomics tools. Using an NGS machine, we produced DNA read data of T. canis. The de novo assembly of the read data was performed using SOAPdenovo. RNA read data were assembled using Tri...

Current short-read methods have come to dominate genome sequencing because they are cost-effective, rapid, and accurate. However, short reads are most applicable when data can be aligned to a known reference. Two new methods for de novo assembly are linked-reads and restriction-site labeled optical maps. We combined commercial applications of these technologies for genome assembly of an endange...

Trematomus species (suborder Notothenioidei; family Nototheniidae) are widely distributed in the southern oceans near Antarctica. There 11 recognized genus Trematomus, and notothenioids known to have high chromosomal diversity (2n = 24–58) because of relatively recent rapid adaptive radiation. Herein, we report chromosomal-level genome assembly T. loennbergii, first characterized representative...

Abstract. The present study aims to evaluate the available aerosol number concentration (ANC) retrieval algorithms for spaceborne lidar CALIOP (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization) aboard CALIPSO and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation) satellite airborne in situ measurements from ATom (Atmospheric Tomography Mission) campaign. We used HYSPLIT (Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangi...

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. conglutinans is the causal agent of wilt cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.), which results in severe yield loss. Here, we report a high-quality genome sequence race 1 strain (IVC-1) F. conglutinans, was assembled using combination PacBio long-read and Illumina short-read sequences. The IVC-1 has total size 71.18 Mb, with contig N50 length 4.59 encodes 23,374 ...

Loggerhead sea turtle Caretta caretta is widely distributed in the oceans of tropical and subtropical latitude. This turtle is an endangered species due to anthropic and natural factors that have decreased their population levels. In this study, RNA sequencing and de-novo assembly of genes expressed in blood were performed. The raw FASTQ files have been deposited on NCBI's SRA database with acc...
