This protocol describes the automated extraction of HMW DNA from multiple different tissue samples a variety species intended for long-read sequencing, using Qiagen MagAttract kit and ThermoFisher KingFisher™ Apex. process is effective wide taxonomic groups covered by Tree Life Programme, excluding plants fungi. The output this DNA, which depending upon yield genome size species, can be directed towards either Pooling or Fragmentation: Diagenode Megaruptor®3 LI HiFi. was adapted Sanger...
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Culex pipiens sensu stricto (the northern house mosquito; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Culicidae), wild population in Sweden. The sequence is 533 megabases span. Most of the scaffolded into three chromosomal pseudomolecules. complete mitochondrial was also assembled and 15.6 kilobases length.

Abstract Despite being landed in commercial cephalopod fisheries, species of Alloteuthis are not yet well defined, with A. subulata and media often confused. DNA barcoding combined morphometric analyses has begun to clarify the distinction between these two morphologically similar but been limited its geographic coverage date. Herein, we provide barcodes for 228 specimens collected from Guinea Bissau south, up Atlantic coast, Irish shelf North Sea. Employing delimitation analyses, comparison...
Abstract The inshore commercial squids, Loligo vulgaris and L. forbesii, co-occur in the ecoregions of Celtic Seas Greater North Sea but spatio-temporal structure their spawning ranges is poorly understood. To help solve problem, data sets collected during last 30 years by British, German, French, Irish scientists, as well observations from multinational Citizen Science, were combined. Spawning grounds forbesii found to form an external semi-circle around vulgaris, with latter being centred...
Abstract Knowledge of stock structure is a priority for effective assessment commercially-fished cephalopods. Loligo forbesii squid are thought to migrate inshore breeding and offshore feeding long-range movements implied from past studies showing genetic homogeneity in the entire neritic population. Only populations (Faroe Rockall Bank) were considered distinct. The present study applied mitchondrial microsatellite markers (nine loci) samples Bank, north Scotland, North Sea, various shelf...
Molluscs are a highly speciose phylum that exhibits an astonishing array of colours and patterns, yet relatively little progress has been made in identifying the underlying genes determine phenotypic variation. One prominent example is land snail Cepaea nemoralis for which classical genetic studies have shown around nine loci, several physically linked inherited together as 'supergene', control shell colour banding polymorphism. As first step towards involved, we used whole-genome...
Monitoring of species using surveys ambiguous signs and assuming 100% detectability produces potentially biased occupancy estimates. Novel analytical tools have been developed that correct for bias arising from imperfect detectability, misidentification spatial autocorrelation between detection survey replicates can affect transect surveys. To date they applied individually, but their combined value is unclear. The recovery carnivores such as the European pine marten Martes martes has far...
