  • P5-build genome assembly

    Im having troubles understanding what a P5-build genome assembly or a fifth genome build means. Could anyone clarify this for me?
    In general Im not really understanding well this whole thing:

    The combined total length of the assembly (a fifth genome build or P5-build) is 1.535 Gb. Comparison of the P5-build to genetic linkage maps (Supplementary Fig. 4 and Methods) resulted in 16 genetic scaffolds (one per chromosome; 43% of the P5 scaffold assembly) for a final total of 40,072 scaffolds with an N50 (the scaffold size above which 50% of the total length of the sequence assembly can be found) of 1.27 megabases (Mb) (Supplemen- tary Table 4) and 74% of RefSeq supported genes.

    Anything anyone can recommend to read?
    Thanks,
    Tatiana

    I would say that "P5" is just the version number of the palm genome. The initial draft genome was probably P1. Including sequences from BAC libraries may have resulted in the second version of the genome assembly (P2), including linkage map info resulted in P3, etc.

      Investigating the Gut Microbiome Through Diet and Spatial Biology
      by seqadmin




      The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...

      Quality Control Essentials for Next-Generation Sequencing Workflows
      by seqadmin




      Like all molecular biology applications, next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows require diligent quality control (QC) measures to ensure accurate and reproducible results. Proper QC begins at nucleic acid extraction and continues all the way through to data analysis. This article outlines the key QC steps in an NGS workflow, along with the commonly used tools and techniques.
