A hybrid de novo genome assembly of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, with chromosome-length scaffolds

A hybrid de novo genome assembly of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, with chromosome-length scaffolds

Abstract Background The ability to generate long sequencing reads and access long-range linkage information is revolutionizing the quality and completeness of genome assemblies. Here we use a hybrid approach that combines data from four genome sequencing and mapping technologies to generate a new ge...
