A hybrid de novo genome assembly of the digger wasp Cerceris sabulosa (Hymenoptera, Crabronidae).
The digger wasp genus Cerceris represents an important transition from predacious hymenopterans to the bees. Here, we present a refined genome assembly of Cerceris sabulosa. A drone specimen was sequenced using the Oxford Nanopore platform, and polished by Illumina paired-end reads. The assembled genome size was 372.7 Mb including 587 contigs (N50 = 6.6 Mb), with 99.4% of BUSCO genes present in the assembly. A total of 12 425 protein-coding genes were annotated. In addition, 140.3 Mb of repeat elements and 938 noncoding RNAs were identified. Genome evolution analysis showed that many genes related to organic cyclic compound binding had experienced significant expansion. Our new genome assembly builds the foundation for in-depth research on evolutionary adaptation and life style transition in Cerceris species.
期刊介绍:
Over the last 100 years, the Journal of Heredity has established and maintained a tradition of scholarly excellence in the publication of genetics research. Virtually every major figure in the field has contributed to the journal.
Established in 1903, Journal of Heredity covers organismal genetics across a wide range of disciplines and taxa. Articles include such rapidly advancing fields as conservation genetics of endangered species, population structure and phylogeography, molecular evolution and speciation, molecular genetics of disease resistance in plants and animals, genetic biodiversity and relevant computer programs.
