High-Quality de novo Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of a Single Bombyx mori With BmNPV Resistance by a Combination of PacBio Long-Read Sequencing, Illumina Short-Read Sequencing, and Hi-C Sequencing

The reference genomes of Bombyx mori (B. mori), Silkworm Knowledge-based database (SilkDB) and SilkBase, have served as the gold standard for nearly two decades. Their use has fundamentally shaped model organisms and accelerated relevant studies on lepidoptera. However, the current reference genomes...
