High-Quality Genome Assembly and Annotation for Plasmodium coatneyi, Generated Using Single-Molecule Real-Time PacBio Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
Plasmodium coatneyi is a protozoan parasite species that causes simian malaria and is an excellent model for studying disease caused by the human malaria parasite, P. falciparum Here we report the complete (nontelomeric) genome sequence of P. coatneyi Hackeri generated by the application of only Pacific Biosciences RS II (PacBio RS II) single-molecule real-time (SMRT) high-resolution sequence technology and assembly using the Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process (HGAP). This is the first Plasmodium genome sequence reported to use only PacBio technology. This approach has proven to be superior to short-read only approaches for this species.

De Novo Genome Assembly of a Plasmodium falciparum NF54 Clone Using Single-Molecule Real-Time Sequencing
Plasmodium falciparum is the species of human malaria parasite that causes the most severe form of the disease. Here, we used single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology from Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) to sequence, assemble de novo, and annotate the genome of a P. falciparum NF54 clone.
متن کاملSingle-Molecule Sequencing of the Drosophila serrata Genome
Long-read sequencing technology promises to greatly enhance de novo assembly of genomes for nonmodel species. Although the error rates of long reads have been a stumbling block, sequencing at high coverage permits the self-correction of many errors. Here, we sequence and de novo assemble the genome of Drosophila serrata, a species from the montium subgroup that has been well-studied for latitud...

We report here the complete genome sequence of Cellulophaga lytica HI1 isolated from a seawater table located at the Kewalo Marine Laboratory (Honolulu, HI). This is the first complete de novo genome assembly of C. lytica HI1 using PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, which resulted in a single scaffold of 3.8 Mb.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea HI1, Determined Using Roche 454 and PacBio Single-Molecule Real-Time Hybrid Sequencing
We report here the 6.0-Mb draft genome assembly of Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea strain HI1 using Roche 454 and PacBio single-molecule real-time hybrid-sequencing analysis. This strain is of biological importance since it has the capacity to induce the settlement and metamorphosis of the serpulid polychaete Hydroides elegans and the coral Pocillopora damicornis.
