DNA sequencing in the classroom: complete genome sequence of two earwig (Dermaptera; Insecta) species

Abstract Background Despite representing the largest fraction of animal life, the number of insect species whose genome has been sequenced is barely in the hundreds. The order Dermaptera (the earwigs) suffers from a lack of genomic information despite its unique position as one of the basally derive...
