The extant reptiles are one of the most diverse clades among terrestrial vertebrates and a few groups with instances parthenogenesis. Due to hybrid origin parthenogenetic species, reference genomes parental species as well progeny indispensable explore genetic foundations reproduction. Here, we report on first genome assembly rock lizard Darevskia valentini, paternal for several lineages. novel was used in reconstruction comprehensive phylogeny Squamata inferred independently from 7369 trees...
Despite the recent advances in high-throughput sequencing, metagenome analysis of microbial populations still remains a challenge. In particular, metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) are often fragmented due to interspecies repeats, uneven coverage, and varying strain abundance. MAGs constructed via binning process that uses features input data order cluster long contigs presumably belonging same species. this work, we present BinSPreader-a refiner tool exploits assembly graph topology other...

Darevskia rock lizards include 29 sexual and seven parthenogenetic species of hybrid origin distributed in the Caucasus. All genus were formed as a result interspecific hybridization only four species. It remains unknown what are main advantages along with switching on reproduction evolution reptiles. Data whole transcriptome sequencing parthenogens their parental ancestors can provide value impact solving this problem. Here we have sequenced ovary tissue transcriptomes from unisexual lizard...
The analysis of metagenomic data obtained via high-throughput DNA sequencing is primarily carried out by a dedicated binning process involving clustering contigs, presumably belonging to the same species. Here, we present protocol for improving quality using BinSPreader. We describe steps typical metagenome assembly and workflow. then detail refining, its variants, output, possible caveats. This optimizes reconstructing more complete genomes microorganisms that make up metagenome. For...
Abstract Despite the recent advances in high-throughput sequencing, analysis of metagenome whole microbial population still remains a challenge. In particular, metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) are often fragmented due to interspecies repeats, uneven coverage and vastly different strain abundance. MAGs usually constructed via dedicated binning process that uses features input data order cluster contigs might belong same species. This has some limitations therefore binners discard shorter...
