Genome Assembly and Insights into Globally Invasive Red-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer).
The Red-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) of the Pycnonotidae family is one of the most invasive tropical passerine bird species. We accomplished the genome and transcriptome sequencing of P. cafer to explore the genomic basis of invasiveness and assembled the genome size of 1.03 Gb and 15,533 protein-coding genes with an N50 of 3.04 Mb and 97.2% BUSCO completeness. Our study constructed the mitogenome and 18S rRNA marker gene of P. cafer for the first time. Further, we investigated the demographic history and identified recent genetic bottlenecks the species experienced. We established the phylogenetic position of P. cafer and examined the gene family evolution along with orthologous gene clustering to provide clues on the invasive characteristics of P. cafer. Our study thus serves as a significant resource for future studies in invasion genomics and the possible management of this bird species in alien ranges.
期刊介绍：
DNA Research is an internationally peer-reviewed journal which aims at publishing papers of highest quality in broad aspects of DNA and genome-related research. Emphasis will be made on the following subjects: 1) Sequencing and characterization of genomes/important genomic regions, 2) Comprehensive analysis of the functions of genes, gene families and genomes, 3) Techniques and equipments useful for structural and functional analysis of genes, gene families and genomes, 4) Computer algorithms and/or their applications relevant to structural and functional analysis of genes and genomes. The journal also welcomes novel findings in other scientific disciplines related to genomes.
